Baltic wilderness stage feel: long forest sections, quiet trails, and a true endurance test in Estonia.
The EUTR Estonia Ultra-Trail Race 65km — rebranded as the CUT Coast Ultra Trail for 2026 — ranks among the most consistently gentle ultras in the DTR database. The average uphill gradient places it 383rd of 390 European trail races (only 7 races climb more gently on average), and the average downhill gradient ranks 8th of 390 for gentleness — only 7 races descend more gently on average. With just 330m D+ across 64.8km and a biggest single ascent of 22m, this is a race where the 65km distance is the challenge — not the terrain. The race starts at 02:00 on June 27, 2026 — deep in Estonia's white nights, when Narva at 59°N never reaches true darkness near the summer solstice. The loop runs from Äkkeküla Sports Center through Baltic forest and coastal terrain in Ida-Viru County, on Estonia's eastern border with Russia. UTMB Index and ITRA-certified (2 points). Entry €155. First held in 2018; 2026 is the 9th edition.

Racing at 02:00 in Midsummer: What Running Estonia's White Nights Actually Feels Like▼
What terrain should I expect on the EUTR Estonia Ultra-Trail Race 65km? The course runs through Baltic coastal forest, lowland trails, and rural paths in Narva's Ida-Viru County.
