XTERRA Snowdonia Trail Marathon 2023
Welcome to the XTERRA Snowdonia Trail Marathon, a stunning Trail Marathon, Ultra Marathon, Half Marathon and 10k, starting and finishing in Wales' outdoor capital, Llanberis. Entering the XTERRA Snowdonia Trail Marathon is your ticket to compete in one of the UK's most challenging trail races.
The incredible routes explore the trails, gorgeous panoramic views and tough climbs that make Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park so popular with outdoor enthusiasts. Visiting Rhyd Ddu, Beddgelert, Nant Gwynant, Pen y Pass, and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), there surely can't be a more striking trail marathon route in the UK!
The Snowdonia Trail Marathon & Half Marathon are part of the XTERRA Trail Run World Series
The XTERRA Trail Run World Series connects the entire trail running community through a global rankings system, regional championships, and for those who qualify - the XTERRA Trail Run World Championship. Following a similar system to the esteemed XTERRA Triathlon Series, each race in Trail Run World Series will provide a limited number of slots that will allow the top runners in each age group to qualify for the annual, invite-only XTERRA Trail Run World Championship. During the season, there will also be three regional championship races to determine the XTERRA Champion of the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific regions.
The Ultra Marathon and Marathon are also both UTMB-indexed races.
