Wild Trail 2027 Course Analysis

Wild Trail is a full marathon held in Piana, Italy. The next edition is expected on Sunday 18 April 2027, following the pattern of previous editions (the 3rd Sunday of April). The organisers have not confirmed it yet. The course is run on trail surface with 1959m of total climbing, with its high point near 1100m above sea level. For registration and full race details, visit the official Wild Trail website.

Climbing

At 1959m of total climbing, it is hillier than 98% of the 860 marathons we rate. The hills will cost time: pace the climbs on effort, not on the watch. It runs at altitude (up to about 1100m), where thinner air slows most runners who live near sea level.

Surface

Trail: expect unpaved footing (dirt, gravel or forest paths), which our model counts as slower than road for the same climbing. Trail shoes with grip are worth it.
