8.9/ 10
Extreme
Moderate evidence confidence · 63% evidence coverage
This score is driven most by substantial race distance, accumulated fatigue and format burden, technical terrain. Difficulty V2's separate time-limit modifier adds 0.00 points here and is capped at 0.70; a broad limit cannot erase extreme intrinsic demand. This is independent of the public Cutoff Pressure V2 band.
Weather, conditions and individual preparation can change the real difficulty significantly.

Course analysis
What shapes this race
Expect sustained upland ground and meaningful climbing, sections where foot placement and downhill confidence matter, exposed moorland where weather can amplify the difficulty.

Cutoff analysis
Lower pressure
To finish inside 150h, the raw average required is 26:08 per kilometre (42:04 per mile), including every stop.
Raw pace26:08/km
PressureLower pressure
Cutoff pressure compares the published time limit with distance, ascent and verified course demands. Lower pressure does not mean the race is easy. Raw pace includes checkpoints, food stops, navigation errors and any sleep; it is not a pacing plan.
Because ascent is not verified, Cutoff Pressure V2 uses the model's neutral 20m/km reference density. This assumption does not fill the ascent value or make missing evidence look easy.
Who this suits
First ultra?
This is not designed as a first-ultra recommendation. Significant endurance, navigation or mountain-race experience is strongly advised.
1/10 suitability
Navigation
self-navigation
Route-finding is part of the challenge. Carry the required mapping tools and be able to use them in darkness and poor visibility.
Exposure & kit
unknown kit
Significant overnight running is likely for many entrants. Lighting, temperature management and sleep strategy can materially affect the outcome.
Personal race predictor
Prediction unavailable
No current compatible predictor target is available for this family. The selected edition may be complete or cancelled, awaiting a successor, non-standard, or missing model-critical course evidence; older facts are not substituted.

Organiser safety and logistics include tracking, hill and first-aid teams and transport to the start. The route is unmarked and entrants must self-navigate. Total ascent and the exact mandatory-kit classification remain unknown. Cape Wrath Ltd is a distinct organiser; this is not a successor edition of Cape Wrath Ultra or Cape Wrath 100.
