Snake Hill Backyard Ultra, Sundre (Alberta)
This is the inaugural Snake Hill Backyard Ultra, scheduled for Saturday, May 30, 2026 in Sundre, Alberta. The event uses the backyard ultra format in which participants run repeated identical laps until they stop.
Runners complete laps of 6.7 km on rooty, rocky, muddy trails. Each lap is started on the hour; when the hour resets, runners begin the next lap. If a runner does not start a new lap, their race ends.
Registration opens on January 1, 2026 and closes on April 10, 2026. The entry fee is $50.00 per runner. A limited number of places are available. Runners who have completed registration and payment by the deadline are guaranteed an event shirt and a goodie bag. Registrations without completed payment by the deadline will not be eligible for the shirt and goodie bag and may forfeit their place.
The event is hosted by the Sundre Bike n' Ski Club. All proceeds support wayfinding signage and trail maintenance in the Red Deer River Valley and at Snake Hill. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
