About
Tucked away beyond Snowdonia’s craggiest peaks with the Irish Sea on one side and Cardigan Bay on the other, the Llŷn has a distinctive, unspoilt character that’s all its own. Its sunny southern coast draws walkers, wakeboarders and dinghy-sailors, while the ancient pilgrimage site of Bardsey Island, at its tip, is a haven for wildlife. 50 miles, 75 miles and 100 miles in 24 hours, these are the challenges posed by the Pen Llŷn Ultra Marathon. The races start and finish at the beach next to Aberech Sands Caravan Park near Pwllheli, with checkpoints / aid stations along the scenic route.
100 Miles, 50 Miles, and 75 Miles

Pen Llyn Ultras
Tucked away beyond Snowdonia’s craggiest peaks with the Irish Sea on one side and Cardigan Bay on the other, the Llŷn Peninsula has a distinctive, unspoiled character that’s all its own. Its sunny southern coast draws walkers, wakeboarders, and dinghy-sailors There are several islands dotted around the peninsula, with the famous ancient pilgrimage site of Bardsey Island, at its tip and can be seen in all its beauty during the race. The islands and coastline of Llŷn are a haven for wildlife and an area of outstanding natural beauty. Seals and dolphins are common sites around the peninsula. All of this makes a perfect backdrop for the Pen Llŷn Ultra.
Spectator Info
There are many places along the route to support and cheer the runners and provide aid. Our checkpoints will have fluids, gels and snacks, however, additional food and fluids can be provided by helpers anywhere along the route. Note that some sections of the route are long and arduous with some considerable time between aid stations – so be prepared and ensure you carry enough supplies.
