Run on the roof of Africa. Kilimanjaro Trail Run (KTR) offers ultra (67km), full, and half marathon distance events on the tallest freestanding mountain in the world. All races climb to an elevation of 3850 meters (12600 ft) on Mount Kilimanjaro over a mix of double track, single track and technical single track trails.
The Kilimanjaro Trail 67 Ultra was previously our longest race, but for 2022 will become the shorter version of our Trail 74. It’s a loop race from Simba Farm (1760m / 5770ft) to Kilimanjaro’s Cathedral Point (3850m / 12600ft) and return. We race the course clockwise direction in even years and anti-clockwise in odd. In 2022 racers will climb on the Shira rescue road and descend via the Lemosho trekking route, passing through farmland, rain forest, and heather / moorland zones. Total climbing for the KTR Ultra is 2850 meters (9350 ft).
