Dragon’s Back Race®

The world’s toughest mountain race

The Dragon’s Back Race® was revived by Ourea Events in 2012, twenty years after the 1992 race in which the inaugural ‘dragons’ tackled Wales’ uniquely wild, trackless, and remote mountainous terrain.

Today, it is considered to be the toughest mountain race in the world. Participants underestimate it at their peril! Be under no illusion, this is not a ‘trail race’.

 

Six days

From Conwy Castle to Cardiff Castle, a legendary multi-stage, ultra running journey down the spine of Wales. This is the world’s toughest mountain race.

 

380km

The average daily distance is 63km - that’s >1.5 marathons a day! Be sure to pace yourself.

 
 

17,400m

That’s almost twice the height of Everest - enter only if you’re brave enough.
