Ultra Trail Ha Giang substitutes for Cuc Phuong in April

We are happy to confirm that Ultra Trail Ha Giang is a new ATM Championship qualifier for the ongoing Season 11 in Vietnam. This last-minute entry follows the cancellation of Lam Dong Trail and Vietnam Ultra Marathon, and the postponement of Cuc Phuong Jungle Paths to Season 12. Ultra Trail Ha Giang is organised by Race Jungle and features a 70km trail race, which means finishers can also score a point for their Grandmaster Quest.

The event is scheduled for the upcoming weekend of 3 to 5 April . Ha Giang lies approximately 300km northeast of Hanoi. It’s an area known for its breaktaking landscapes, and recommended by several seasoned trail runners in ATM who have taken part in the event before. .

As we read on the event’s web page: “Under the theme "Discovery the rocky mountain," the race is not only a test of endurance but also a journey to explore the majestic beauty of Ha Giang's rocky landscapes. The race routes stretch along the historic Hạnh Phúc Road, weaving through deep valleys and steep cliffs, offering a chance to admire breathtaking natural scenery and connect with the culturally rich ethnic villages. “

The event has several distance categories, and even a road ultra as well, but ATM points seekers should focus exclusively on the 70 km. More infornation can be obtained via the website below.
