The White Lake Ultras take place May 2-3, 2026 at White Lake State Park in Tamworth, New Hampshire. The event offers fixed-time trail races in three formats:

24 hour
12 hour
6 hour

Each format uses a slightly technical 2.0 mile loop that is about 99% single track with a short section of beach and a sidewalk. A single loop has approximately 50 feet of vertical ascent and the course reaches a maximum elevation near 440 feet.

All races start and finish on a beach. There is one well stocked aid station located at the start/finish area; food at the aid station is for runners only. Drop bags may be left in the start/finish area and are accessible each loop. Runners have space near the start/finish to set up gear and a 10x10 canopy for crew access. Pacers are not allowed to accompany runners during these events.

No prior qualifying performance is required to enter. Live split tracking is provided during the race weekend. Registration for the event closes April 27, 2026 and race shirts ordered by April 1 are guaranteed on race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
