Global Trail Race Series

2024 is over. Time to rethink this list for 2025 – stay tuned!

Here’s a list of all the big trail race series that are happening in 2024 (did I miss any?):

And here is the full spreadsheet with all the races put into a calendar:

V4. Updated 20 Feb 2024

A few words explaining each column:

COLORS: Blue – UTMB World Series, Green – WTM World Trail Majors, Yellow – TORX Experience, Red – Skyrunner World Series, Pink – Valsir Mountain Running World Cup, Orange – Golden Trail Series.
MONTH/DAYS: These are the dates for the 2024 events. This will change from year to year and I will update as new dates become available. That’s why I chose to keep the months separate to give people an easy idea of what time of year the event is happening. Races with no confirmed dates for 2024 have dates taken out.
RACE: Name of the individual event.
DISTANCE: Most race organizations are offering several distances during the race week, which I listed.
CITY: This could be the finish or start city, but I added it as an approximation if you’re looking for flights to a nearby city.
STATE/COUNTRY: Country where the race is held. Some events can cross country borders.
WEBSITE: Link to each respective events website.
NOTES: I will update the list as anything new is announced by the respective organizations.
