HELL ULTRA
480 KM | 120 HRS
Manali – Leh highway is considered one of the toughest highways around the world because of the high altitude and harsh weather. The highway is closed & covered in snow for almost six months, opens in the month of June, and closes in Oct. The average altitude is higher than 4000 m & Oxygen levels dip to 40-60% on passes. Running in such conditions is not an easy task and would need serious training. Covering 480 km on foot in just over 120 hours that too at such a high altitude is definitely not for the weak of will!
Run the entire 480km distance from Manali to Leh on the highest highway in the world.
