Hosted over summer solstice, the Shuswap Ultra is a 120KM and 60KM trail event that connects the communities of Salmon Arm and Sicamous in the gorgeous Shuswap, British Columbia.

Why we love it

The Shuswap Ultra is inspired by community. It is inclusive and supports all levels of runners; those new to trail running, those looking to compete in their first ultra, and a seasoned runner that is training to crush a fast course. This combined with the beauty of the trails within the Southern Secwepemc First Nation, make it a must do.
