The TARC Wapack and Back Trail Races feature both a challenging 50-mile and a 43-mile ultramarathon along the rugged Wapack Trail, plus a scenic 21.5-mile trek. The course takes runners from Mt. Watatic in Massachusetts to North Pack Mt in Greenfield, NH, presenting technical terrain with significant elevation gains—around 10,800 feet for the 50-miler and about 4,600 feet each way for the 43-mile route. Enthusiastic ultrarunners can expect stunning vistas, including the Boston skyline, the Berkshire and Green Mountains to the west, and the White Mountains to the north. With four water stations along the route for support, these races promise an exhilarating challenge for serious trail enthusiasts. Participants in the 43-mile can also opt for the 50-mile race, completing their run at the start/finish line.
