About the Event

Pokhara Ultra is Nepal's premier trail race, inviting runners to push their limits on untamed Himalayan terrain. This extraordinary course takes participants from Armala’s rugged ridges through the alpine trails of Sikles, offering an unbridled adventure with stunning views of Annapurna II, Annapurna IV, Lamjung Himal, and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail). Whether you opt for one of the ultra distances or join the fun run, expect to traverse cloud-kissed forests and soar over ridgelines while experiencing the vibrant support from local villages.
Certified by UTMB Index and ITRA approved, each participant receives live GPS tracking during their race. The event offers special discounts making it accessible for all levels of runners — from young athletes to experienced ultra-distance competitors. Pre-race briefings ensure everyone is prepared for the challenging terrain ahead. Post-event celebrations take place at Father’s Land Orange Farm, providing a warm welcome and festive atmosphere in the heart of the Himalayas.
This race combines breathtaking scenery with an unmatched sense of community and adventure, making it a must-attend event for trail runners seeking both challenge and camaraderie.

About Pokhara

Learn more about the host city, Pokhara.

Pokhara is the second largest city in Nepal with about 520,000 people in 2021. It is the starting point for most of the treks in the Annapurna area. It is a very popular location with most people staying around the beautiful Fewa Lake. Dozens of hotels and restaurants are sprouting like mushrooms everywhere, and today it is much easier to find modern amenities not common to other locations in Nepal, but Pokhara is losing its small town charm and the lakeside now feels more like Khao San Road.
