Vale Coastal Races
Ogmore-by-Sea, United Kingdom • 11 Apr 2026
Vale Coastal Races are the Vale of Glamorgan Ultra and Coastal Races, the original trail events along the Vale of Glamorgan coastline in South Wales, now in their 11th year. Distances are 32.5 miles for the Ultra, 18.5 miles for the Trail (Mini Ultra), and 10 miles for the Trail. The route follows the Wales Coast Path almost entirely on trail, hugging cliffs and passing 19 beaches, with the final 14 miles along the Glamorgan Heritage Coast famed for dramatic cliffs, coves, and rolling countryside. The 18.5 and 10-mile routes join the Ultra in places; all finish together at Ogmore-by-Sea. Features include marked maps, GPS, checkpoints, bus transport between start and finish, and a finish-line welcome. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
