About the event

Immerse yourself in the rugged beauty of the Caucasus Mountains for an unforgettable endurance challenge. The Armageddon race series offers three grueling routes: 200 kilometers from Arkhyz to Baksan Valley, 500 kilometers through breathtaking landscapes towards Kurort Armkhi, and a monumental 1000+ kilometer trek all the way to the Caspian Sea's shore. Each route promises an autonomous, wild, and unpredictable journey that will test your limits like never before.
Starting on July 13, 2029, runners of the longer distances (over 100 kilometers) can take advantage of a special early bird registration discount until December 31, 2028. Participants who have completed previous Armageddon events since 2019 are eligible for a significant 50% off their current registration fee using code LEGEND.
The race unfolds across the diverse terrains and cultures of Karachaevo-Cherkessia, Kabardino-Balkaria, North Ossetia-Alania, Ingushetia, Chechnya, and Dagestan. With stunning mountain vistas, dense forests, and rugged trails, this is a true adventure for those seeking an epic challenge.
