Race Description

Saturday April 9th 2011: This is one of the highest ultras in the world running from near to Everest Base camp at Gorak Shep down along the Everest trekking route to Lukla, so pretty much the entire Everest trek in reverse in one go. Needless to say, the mountain views are truly awesome.

Because the entrants need proper acclimatisation, there is a fixed group departure to ensure all runners are properly prepared – essentially it’s a fun and inspiring trek to basecamp with a tough but fast return!
