Forest Rail Run 2024 (FRR’24)

Crosswind Adventures is known for organizing challenging events, and Uphill 2024 is no exception. However, they are not resting on their laurels and are already gearing up for their next exciting challenge, Forest Rail Run 2024 (FRR’24). Scheduled for April 27-28, FRR’24 promises to be an exhilarating experience.

Event Highlights:

During the Forest Rail Run 2024 (FRR’24), participants will embark on a unique journey from Fort Railway Station to Pattipola. Upon reaching the competition’s starting point near Pattipola, contestants will disembark from the train and commence a challenging 7-kilometer run along the railway line. This demanding route presents various obstacles, including fog, snow, high altitude, and the unconventional terrain of running on a railway track. These factors add extra difficulty for the competitors during this event.

Following the initial 7-kilometer rail run, participants of FRR’24 face an additional 6-kilometer challenge along a scenic tarmac road, traversing a stunning ecosystem. This segment introduces a distinct test for the competitors, as seasoned runners know that transitioning from running on a railway track to a tarmac surface presents unique challenges. The shift in terrain and running conditions adds an extra layer of complexity to the race, further pushing the limits of the participants’ endurance and adaptability.

Following the tarmac road stretch, participants face an arduous 15-kilometer hike along a forest foot trail. This particular challenge pushes the limits of endurance to an almost impossible level. After completing 13 kilometers of demanding terrain, it becomes crucial to provide participants with essential guidance and precautions before entering the forest. These instructions will highlight the necessary precautions and safety measures to be taken, ensuring the well-being and careful navigation of the competitors within the forest environment.
