Four distances, one canyon

From the half marathon to 100 miles, every route crosses colonial stone roads, old bridges and villages that time forgot.

Colombia's wildest trail race

A one-of-a-kind race in the Chicamocha Canyon

Over 4 days and 3 nights, close to 1,000 runners take on Colombia's wildest landscapes: ancestral trails, colonial villages and close to 50 hours of non-stop racing.

You run or hike along singletrack, historic stone roads and rural tracks, crossing streams and old bridges, with big climbs and technical descents. An experience that transforms body and spirit.
