You’re In. Welcome to UltraTrax South Carolina. On May 15, 2027, you’ll take on a full day of movement, challenge, and time on the trails at Stable View Farm in Aiken, South Carolina. For the first time, UltraTrax is heading to South Carolina. Set across Stable View’s expansive countryside, the course will wind through a landscape of wooded trails, gently rolling terrain, open stretches, and quiet corners of the property. Stable View sits on 1,000 acres with access to additional conserved woods and trails, creating a course that feels removed from it all while still offering terrain that lets you settle into a rhythm and keep moving. Whether you’re here to walk 7 miles or push all the way to 28, the challenge is yours to define. 10 hours. One 7-mile loop. Four distances. How far will you go? Complete your goal within the 10-hour event window. Want another layer of challenge? Take it on with a 10, 20, or 35 lb. ruck or weighted vest. The course will be clearly marked from start to finish, with well-stocked aid stations positioned along the route to keep you fueled and moving. Trek Day Saturday, May 15, 2027 Stable View Farm, Aiken, SC The start line is open between 7am-10am and is divided into corrals based on distance. 28 milers get started at 7am, 21 milers at 7:45am, 14 milers at 8:30am, and 7 milers at 9:15am. UltraTrax is not a race, but it is a timed endurance event. You’ll have up to 10 hours to complete your chosen distance. Move at your pace. Take breaks when you need them. Then keep going. Bib Pickup Your bib may be mailed to you in advance or picked up on event morning. Participants registering after April 20, 2027 must pick up their bib in person. Taking on the Ruck Challenge? If you registered for a weighted division, you’ll need to bring your own ruck, backpack, or weighted vest. Your pack will be weighed before you begin. Everything in the pack counts toward your required weight except perishable food and drinks.

What to Expect at South Carolina A Rolling Southern Trail Experience Travel through Stable View’s gently rolling countryside on a mix of wooded trails and open stretches. The property maintains an extensive trail network used for walking, hiking, running, and other outdoor events, giving this course a natural flow without the sustained mountain climbs found at some UltraTrax locations. A Challenge You Choose There is no single definition of success at UltraTrax. Walk your first 7 miles, chase 28, or add weight and see what you can carry. Support Along the Way Expect a well-marked course, stocked aid stations, event staff, and a community of people working toward their own goals alongside you. Parking Complimentary onsite parking will be available at Stable View Farm. Stable View Farm is located at 117 Stable Drive, Aiken, SC 29801. More detailed arrival, parking, course, and event-day information will be sent as Trek Day gets closer.

A portion of UltraTrax proceeds supports efforts to protect and preserve the outdoor spaces we depend on. You’re officially part of the pack! We’ll see you in South Carolina.
