Forest Trail

The 22K Forest Trail, run as part of Antalya Canyon Ultra, is a trail race approximately 22 km long with 400m+ of climbing. The race starts from the start area at 08:00 on 14 November 2026. Participants must complete the course within the time limit announced by the organisation. This course is run under the principle of partial self-sufficiency, which means participants carry the equipment that allows them to continue running safely in the nature and terrain conditions they may encounter.

All athletes taking part in the 22K Forest Trail must hold either a valid medical certificate issued within the last 6 months (stating that there is no objection to practising athletics, triathlon, running or mountaineering) or a valid (non-expired) athlete licence from the Athletics, Triathlon, Mountaineering, Orienteering or Cycling federations, and must present it at kit collection. The race is open to all participants aged 18 and over.
