About
The Bryce Canyon Ultra takes place in Hatch, Utah, in the mountains surrounding Bryce Canyon. Four distances are on offer: roughly 18.6 miles, a 50K (31 miles), a 60K (about 37 miles), and the full 50-mile ultramarathon.
All four routes wind through the high desert terrain that defines this part of southern Utah, with runners taking in the region's distinctive red-rock formations and mountain scenery regardless of which distance they choose. It's a course built to showcase Bryce Canyon country at a range of efforts, from a solid morning outing to a full ultramarathon.
