About the race
Ultra Trail DE is a 6-hour trail running event held on private Longwood Gardens property at 2900 Montchanin Road in Wilmington, Delaware. Runners tackle roughly a 5-mile marked loop with about 700 feet of elevation gain per lap, featuring creek crossings, twisty singletrack, grass and gravel, and occasional gravel roads. Set on a 550-acre property, the course offers spectacular Brandywine Valley views—from pastures and ponds to water towers, a tunnel, and a greenhouse, plus rolling hills overlooking the Brandywine valley.
The race enforces a no-preview policy, is cup-less (bring a reusable cup), and allows personal drop bags. It’s the inaugural Ultra Trail DE, a Longwood Gardens collaboration, with awards for top finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
