Salt Pans Ultra Trail Marathon
Trail running
50 km, 100 km
Sobre el evento
Experience an unforgettable adventure in the magnificent country of Botswana and compete in the world's most demanding flat route race - the Salt Pans Ultra. This trail ultra has earned a place on many bucket lists. Participants can choose between two distances - 50kms and 100kms - depending on how hard they want to push themselves.
Both routes take runners across the awe-inspiring Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, the second largest salt pans in the world. The Makgadikgadi Pans are believed by some scientists to be the birthplace of humanity's first migrations north. While the runners don't gain a lot of elevation, they will definitely be tested mentally and physically, with few points of reference, no route markings, and extreme temperatures.
Don't miss this incredible opportunity!

Detalles del recorrido
Lo más destacado del recorrido
Running on the pans has been described by previous runners to be like running on the Moon. It has also been described as a race unlike any other. You will leave moved, inspired and with memories that will last a lifetime. > We provide a truly African experience with amazing sunsets and sunrises plus clear star filled night skies. There is fully catered and supported wilderness camping that combines great food, craft beer and gin, freshly brewed coffee, amazing volunteers and a small intimate field of 100 athletes. The course provides a true adventure race experience with no cell signal, no route markings and no noise except the endless crunch of your shoes on the pans. Expect wind and towering dust devils, high temperatures and the constant glare of the bright white sand to impede your progress. You will need to be completely on top of your mental game to finish. The well stocked water stations that are visible from miles away promise well needed but brief respite. Kukonje Island is a highlight as it towers in the middle of the Pans with its ancient baobab trees highlighted against the horizon.
