Each week, lTRA proposes to discover trail running races around the world. This week, we are traveling to Taiwan, to present a trail for adventurers in the jungle, but also to Morocco with the first edition of the « Ultra-trail Chaouen Morocco », with a step in the north of England to introduce the« Coastal Trail Series - Northumberland ».
Discover Taiwan, through the jungle ! Brave trailers will discover the country with technical tracks and beautiful landscapes (the 34 Km race, 2400D+, very technical, is supposed to be ended in 6-7 hours by the winner, according to organizers). Adventurers can choose between different trails to discover the jungle (10 Km to 34 Km). Unforgettable memories !

The Northumberland coastline boasts some of the most dramatic coastal scenery in the UK and is best known for its sweeping sandy beaches, rolling dunes, high rocky cliffs and isolated islands. This striking landscape is steeped in history and there are few sights on earth that compare with Bamburgh Castle and its expansive and exposed bayside setting.
A host of conservation sites, including two National Nature Reserves, testify to the great variety of wildlife and habitats found in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Once here, you will feel as far removed from the pressures of modern life as it is possible to be, so lace those trail shoes tight, take a deep breath and tune into the wind and waves as you let the stunning widescreen panorama unfold: http://itra.run/race/2016/2014-coastal-trail-series---northumberland/1668-ultra.
