Batur Trail Running Challenge on 4 December

Gradually, trail running events are appearing on calendars again! Including in Indonesia, where the new Batur Trail Run has been confirmed for 4 December 2021 in the Kintamani region of Bali. The event will take place around the Museum Geopark Batur and is a long-term project by the Bali Trail Running group featuring experienced local runners Indah Wardhani and Vincent Chalias. The first edition in December offers a single 30 km race course with 1230 metres of elevation gain on and around the famous Mount Batur volcano, a long-time trekkers’ paradise on the island. Participants in the race will get to see Batur and its adjacent lake from a wholly different angle, though. As the corona crisis is not yet fully over, the event can only take place under a clear covid safety protocol and with a restricted number of runners of 150. Registrations were opened earlier this week and more than half of the available spots have already been claimed. The Batur Trail Run has received our ATM Candidate Race label and will be covered via our channels.
