About the Event

Answer the primal call of the Addo Elephant Trail Run from March 19-22, 2026, an event that redefines the meaning of a wild ultra. As South Africa's original 100-mile trail race, it dares you to traverse the remote, inaccessible heart of the Addo Elephant National Park, a landscape teeming with free-roaming antelope and the echoes of the wild. This is not a curated park tour; it's a raw, demanding journey over rugged Zuurberg mountains, through river crossings, and across vast valleys where you are truly a guest in nature's domain. With four distances, including the legendary 100-miler, this is where personal legends are forged against a backdrop of unparalleled African wilderness. Prepare to earn your buckle at #AfricasWildestUltra.
