4.2/ 10
Moderate
Moderate input evidence · 78% evidence coverage
The main recorded demands are technical terrain. Course difficulty and cutoff pressure describe different challenges: more approachable terrain can still require a demanding pace to beat the deadline. Neither score assesses your personal fitness, safety or readiness.
Scoring details and version
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. Evidence coverage describes the recorded inputs, not prediction accuracy or your likelihood of finishing.
Weather, conditions and individual preparation can change the real difficulty significantly.

Data PartialChecked 13 September 2026. The next race date is not yet confirmed in our sources. Earlier official programme copy listed a provisional 23 May 2027, 06:00 start, 51km and 1,800m with five checkpoints; an exact race day is not confirmed. It also says 2027 sport timings remain provisional until sales open in October 2026, so the record is monitored and no overall cutoff is invented. Other stored facts retain their previous source review from 2026-09-02. Field-scoped review 2026-10-28: The current event page now sells the 2027 sport entry and gives Sunday 23 May at 06:00 for this ultra, with no remaining provisional timing caveat. The festival starts earlier; only the race-specific day is used. Older descriptive route copy is not reverified. Other facts retain their earlier verification dates.
