About the Race

Mount Ugo is one of the taller peaks in the Cordillera mountain range. It used to be the main source of lumber for a mining company operating in Benguet many years ago and was purportedly “discovered” as a destination for mountain climbers after a tragic plane crash in 1987 for which it is also infamously known. The Mount Ugo Marathon takes runners to Mount Ugo’s summit, approximately 2,220 masl. The course consists of only three kilometers or less of intermittent concrete roads/paths. The rest of the route consists of mountain-side dirt roads and single-track trail.
