Traversing historical ridges and old stone-quarry paths between Shilin and Neihu, the race offers sweeping views over the Taipei basin.
What this race demands
This 50-kilometer trail race requires sustained climbing capability and prolonged technical focus over 3200 meters of elevation gain.
Climbing volume
Gaining 3200 meters over 50 kilometers demands consistent uphill strength and the ability to maintain a steady output on steep gradients.
Technical durability
Traversing historical ridges and old stone-quarry paths requires resilient lower legs and ankles to handle uneven terrain for an extended duration.
Pacing discipline
The substantial elevation profile relative to the distance means starting conservatively is necessary to finish the second half effectively.
Target 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to sustain energy levels across the multi-hour duration of the event.
Estimated finish times
