We're delighted to share the news that Ar Gefn Y Ddraig (Riding The Dragon) was joint winner of the People's Choice award at Kendal Mountain Festival 2018.

It is great to see lots of excitement on social media as 2019 participants start to recce the course.

There will be some minor changes to the route as we finalise the 2019 edition with many (many!) stakeholders along the entire 315km course. Any changes are likely to be minor, but we ask participants to remember that if they have purchased a limited-quantity 2017 map... that it is the 2017 course which is shown!

Entries for one of the toughest and most iconic footraces on earth opened today, Wednesday 2nd May 2018. Within just one hour of opening, the 5th edition of the Berghaus Dragon's Back Race®, which takes place in May 2019, has attracted over 200 sign-ups.

At the time only run once before in 1992, the legendary Dragon’s Back Race® was revived in 2012 by Shane Ohly of Ourea Events.

Now, in 2018, we're delighted to release the full length 2012 film for online viewing having previously been available exclusively on DVD and select digital download services. The film takes you in to the heart of this inspiring adventure as the 2012 race weaved its brutal path down the mountainous spine of Wales; 200 miles long - 17,000 metres of ascent - 5 days
