Mamali Trail Weekend 2026 Successfully Completed
9/1/2026
The Mamali Trail Weekend 2026 was successfully held on 29–30 August 2026 at Mamali, Verdikousia, bringing together endurance, trail running and activities for the whole family in a major sporting event.
At the heart of the weekend was the BLACK YARD Ultra-12K, a Last Runner Standing endurance race, held for the first time in Greece in this particular format and philosophy.
Athletes from across Greece, as well as participants from abroad, gathered at Mamali to test their limits in a demanding and truly unique endurance challenge.
The BLACK YARD Ultra-12K made an excellent impression on both the athletes and the visitors, supporters and friends who attended the event.
The Mamali Trail Weekend combined the BLACK YARD Ultra-12K, the Mamali Trail Run 12K, and a 1 km children's race, creating a complete sporting weekend for athletes, families, supporters and mountain-running enthusiasts.
