Arkansas Traveller 100 is a trail running and running race on October 3–4, 2026 in Perryville, AR, with an entry fee of $260.
From the Organizer
The Arkansas Traveller is steeped in tradition as one of the oldest 100 mile races in the country, maintaining its founding philosophy of providing a true ultrarunning experience melded with Southern hospitality. Our course consists of a 17-mile loop followed by an 83-mile out-and-back through the Ouachita Mountains on forest roads, jeep trails, and an eight mile section of the Ouachita Trail. 12,000 cumulative feet of climb. We will have 23 fully stocked and staffed aid stations with the friendliest volunteers and course veterans to help you reach the finish line. The Traveller is a Western States qualifier.
The combination of volunteer and community support, the beautiful scenery of the Ouachitas, and the sneaky-hard runnable hills that will challenge you from beginning to end is what makes the AT100 so unique among the many ultras today.
This is a great run for first-time 100-milers, or experienced ultrarunners who enjoy a well-supported event.
