Bali Volcano Race: a new stage race!

As we announced a few days ago, we have received three applications from Bali to join the Asia Trail Master Championship series in 2021, and the second event is a brand new stage race that will take place on the Indonesian island in November 2020: Bali Volcano Race.

The event has been created by the team of Kike Borras in Spain, a fervent trail runner and event organiser in his home country of, amongst others, the Ultra Trail of Guara Somontano and the Half Marathon of Lleida. In Bali they will work together with a local team to establish the Bali Volcano Race with the aim of becoming a reference in the world of the trail with the idea of ​​combining sport, nature and tourism as an authentic experience for athletes, family and companions.

The event will feature three different stages in different parts of Bali. Beginning in Tabahan just north of the famous Tanah Lot temple, continuing in Bedugul and the Danau Bratan lake and ending in Kintamani on and around Gunung Batur. Three demanding stages with a total distance of between 120 and 150 km, but at the same time, they will be feasible for any moderately trained athlete. They will perfectly combine the different Balinese landscapes: the mountain, the jungle, waterfalls, beaches and rice paddies. The precise routes will become available early in 2020.

For runners’ companions, there will be a touristic programme combined with the attendance and following of the races. And after the event, everyone can enjoy some of the multi-day tourism packages, which we offer from the Bali Volcano Race to get more out of the visit to this wonderful island.
