Race Format & Nature
The Jumping Gorilla Mountain Trail Run Series organizes 100% mountain trail races in the rugged terrains of the Sahyadri ranges (Western Ghats). The series is self-supported, with aid stations every 9 to 12 km providing minimal assistance including hydration and basic nutrition. This is a competitive, high-difficulty race series.
Medical & Emergency Protocol
Aid stations are staffed with physiotherapists. Medical emergency teams are available along the route and at the base. Participants must carry emergency contact information and recommended health documents, as well as some cash for unforeseen needs.
Mandatory Gear List
