Ultra 4 Cancer - Lapland 2027 invites runners and walkers to embark on an extraordinary journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Swedish Lapland, all while raising funds for four dedicated cancer charities. This unique adventure offers three distance options: a challenging two-day 100km trek, a scenic one-day 50km route, or a more manageable single day 25km course. Participants will traverse Boreal forests and cross frozen lakes, immersing themselves in the serene winter beauty of Lapland. The event is limited to just 250 spots across all distances, ensuring an intimate experience with fellow runners who share your passion for making a difference. Join renowned veterans Foxy (star of "SAS: Who Dares Wins" and "Meet the Drug Lords") and Woody ("Danny Boy" on BBC and "Arctic Adventure - Ultimate Survival" on Channel 4) as they lead this inspiring event. The registration fee starts at £450, with instalment options available. To participate, you must raise a minimum of £800 for charity, which is entirely directed towards the four chosen charities. The package includes all in-country transfers from Umea International Airport (UME), accommodation during your stay, camping facilities specifically for the 100km route, fully marked courses and checkpoints, comprehensive medical support, therapeutic services, and a commemorative race medal. Your flight must arrive by 14:00 on January 29th, 2027, and depart after 15:00 on February 1st, 2027 to be eligible for the included transfers. Detailed information about flights is available on the event website. Upon registration, a fundraising page will automatically be created through Givestar, providing you with all necessary tools to reach your fundraising goal before the start of the race. This immersive and rewarding experience in one of Europe's most enchanting winter settings awaits those ready to make an impact. Join us for a journey that blends physical challenge with profound purpose.
