It’s a celebration of the mountain spirit with 4th edition in 2020. These mountains sing to you with their silence, enchant you with their color hues, and silence you with their majesty. True to its name, the route criss-crosses through mountain ranges of The Himalayas, taking you through Kinnaur and Spiti Valleys before ending on one of the toughest passes on this planet – The Rohtang La (3,978 m (13,050 ft)). This route cuts through mountains and splendid landscapes, is surrounded by snow capped majestic peaks, goes over two of the highest passes, Kunzum and Rohtang, extends through wide valleys, camps by high altitude lake, The Chandra Taal, and takes you to the highest village in Asia, Komic.
So what makes this route a must-do as we make it out to be? We may be masochistic to some extent, to want pain and suffer these climbs, terrain and landscape, but, we believe no runner is left untouched by the beauty, serenity, and the toughness of the route, surely asking for a repeat!
NOTE THAT ALL RACES ARE SOLO CATEGORIES. 338Kms, 168Kms, and 100Kms categories are crew supported. 55Kms category is supported fully by Globeracers.
RUNNERS CAN REGISTER DIRECTLY TO RACE IF THEY MEET THE QUALIFYING REQUIREMENTS. If you would like to considered for the race but do not meet the criteria, please submit your other activities that may qualify you for the race. You can email us on info@globeraces.com
