Puerto Vallarta by UTMB

Set along Mexico's stunning Pacific coastline, Puerto Vallarta by UTMB plunges runners into the heart of the Sierra Madre Occidental. The course winds through dense tropical jungle, crosses rivers and climbs to ridgelines offering breathtaking panoramas of Banderas Bay and the endless blue Pacific. The humidity and heat add a layer of challenge that makes every kilometer feel earned.

This is trail running in its most exotic form. Runners navigate single track paths carved through tropical vegetation, pass through traditional villages and experience the rich biodiversity of one of Mexico's most ecologically diverse regions. The combination of technical terrain, tropical climate and jaw dropping scenery creates an experience unlike any other on the UTMB World Series calendar.

Beyond the race, the vibrant culture of Puerto Vallarta provides the perfect backdrop: world class cuisine, warm hospitality and the energy of a city that knows how to celebrate. For those seeking a trail adventure that goes beyond the ordinary, this is it.
