Gorge Ultra Distance is an ultra, paddle, and running race on July 11, 2027 in Stevenson, WA, with an entry fee of $86.
Join us in the Pacific Northwest this summer for an epic 15-mile endurance challenge, SUP racing through the heart of the Columbia River Gorge. Starting at Home Valley and finishing at the Best Western in Hood River, paddlers will experience what is arguably the most consistent downwind run on the planet.
While Mother Nature never gives a 100% guarantee, this race is strategically timed during the peak of the season to maximize our chances for world-class bumps. Don’t miss your chance to race in one of the most iconic stretches of water in the world!
