Description

Ultra X 110 Madeira is a multi-stage ultramarathon that takes place in and around Madeira. Madeira is an autonomous Portuguese island and the largest and most populous of the Madeira Archipelago (Porto Santo and the Desertas being the others).

The island is an oasis of green, with incredible natural pools carved out of lava rocks, gorgeous cliffs overlooking the North Atlantic Ocean and charming towns. It is located in a region known as Macaronesia, just under 400 kilometres to the north of the Canary Islands and 520 kilometres west of the Kingdom of Morocco.

Taking part in mid November, the climate conditions for the race should be temperate, with lows of around 9°C and highs of 21°C.

Ultra X 50 Madeira takes place on the second day (Sunday) of Ultra X 110 Madeira.

Ultra X Madeira takes place on the island of Madeira. The island is an

oasis of green, with incredible natural pools carved out of lava rocks,

gorgeous cliffs overlooking the North Atlantic Ocean and charming

towns. It is located in a region known as Macaronesia, just under 400

kilometres to the north of the Canary Islands and 520 kilometres west

Ultra X Madeira will be one of our hardest races to date; with an elevation

gain of 6,143m over the length of the 110km route. There will be steep

ascents and descents on different areas of the course, with terrain varied

from uneven, rocky trail and steps to good, smooth hard packed mud.

This race will be a true test of physical and mental character.
