About the race
Beacons Way Ultra 100km is an endurance mountain ultramarathon across the Beacons Way in the Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales. The 100km course (62 miles) begins at Llangynidr New Village Hall and finishes at Llangadog RFC, featuring around 3178m of ascent. Runners navigate six checkpoints at Talybont, Storey Arms, Sarn Helen, Penwyllt, Almond Lodge, and Mountain View, with strict cut-offs and mandatory kit checks to ensure safety.
It is a self-navigation event, requiring map-reading and compass skills, and completion of at least a previous 50-mile ultramarathon. The race carries UTMB Performance Index and ITRA points, with entry £119 and optional back-transport. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
