Devonbosch Backyard Ultra

Tired of the ordinary? Step into the extraordinary with the inaugural Devonbosch Backyard Ultra—a test of endurance, speed and adventure.

Discover a new kind of challenge with lap racing! Unlike traditional one-loop trail runs, lap racing offers a unique mental and physical test that keeps you engaged and motivated from start to finish. With each lap, you have the chance to reassess your pace, refine your strategy, and push a little harder, knowing exactly what lies ahead. The consistent route creates a rhythm that’s both comforting and challenging, while the repeated interaction with fellow runners and supporters adds an exciting energy you won’t find in single-loop races. Lap racing isn’t just a run; it’s a dynamic, community-driven experience that will redefine how you approach trail running and hit play on repeat.

Venue

Devonbosch is more than a destination; it’s a lifestyle that invites you to rediscover what truly matters. It’s a place where you can pause, reflect, and embrace a life that’s filled with possibility.

Come, experience the unlimited potential of Devonbosch.
