Schuylkill Trail - UltraTrax
UltraTrax at the Schuylkill Center is a single day endurance walking event held in Philadelphia on September 26, 2026. The course is based on a 7 mile loop with about 869 ft of elevation gain per loop. Participants may complete one to four loops to choose a total distance.
Distances available
- 7 miles (one loop)
- 14 miles (two loops)
- 21 miles (three loops)
- 28 miles (four loops)
The route runs through the Schuylkill Center’s 365 acres of fields, forests, and streams, moving over shaded singletrack, rolling hills, technical rocky sections, open meadows, and ponds. Terrain includes singletrack, ridgeline, and fire roads with steady elevation gain that accumulates on each loop. The setting is minutes from the city while remaining quiet and forested.
Participants may elect to carry weight in a vest or ruck; accepted loads are 10, 20, or 35 pounds and must be provided by the participant. All official finishes must be completed within a 10 hour window to earn event patches; the Grey Wolf medal is awarded for completing three or four loops. The event provides well marked trails, aid stations, professional timing and photos, and a trail pack with a commemorative patch and finisher shirt.
