The Malnad Ultra is an Ultramarathon over a course that winds itself through beautiful coffee plantations in the Malnad Region of Karnataka, India. Three categories of runs are planned over 50km, 80km and 110km targeting marathoners of varying abilities and experience.

The 50km event begins at 7:00 am on Saturday and has a cut-off of 9 hours. The 80 and 110km events begin at 6:30 am on Saturday and have a cut-off of 15 and 24 hours respectively.

Interested participants can register for the event online. This event is organised in a rather remote area and we strongly recommend that participants plan travel and accommodation well in advance.

The Inaugural Edition, held in October 2016, attracted 200 runners from around India along with a dozen international participants.

Complete Details are available on our Web Site.
