Massanutten UltraTrax
UltraTrax Massanutten is a single day endurance walk held in Massanutten, VA on April 17, 2027. Participants choose a distance and have 10 hours to complete their chosen course. The event welcomes walkers, hikers, and ruckers and offers optional weighted categories of 10, 20, or 35 pounds.
Distances available include:
- 7 miles
- 14 miles
- 21 miles
- 28 miles
The basic course uses the Western Slope trail system, featuring flowing singletrack, wider doubletrack, and fire roads with steady climbs and varied terrain. The standard loop is 7 miles with about 553 feet of elevation gain per lap. An optional advanced segment runs along the ridgeline and ski slopes and adds steeper elevation changes and technical rock scrambles; this segment is only open in safe weather and may close if conditions are wet. There are no aid stations on the final ridge line toward the finish.
Support on course includes marked trails, staffed aid stations on the main loops, professional timing, and event photography. Each participant receives a trail pack with a commemorative patch and finisher shirt, and higher level finishers may earn the Grey Wolf medal. Complimentary shuttles to the start are provided and parking is near the finish. A portion of registrations supports the Conservation Lands Foundation.
