Welcome to the Red Rock 200 UltraMarathon Bicycle Race! In the classic style of ultra racing, the Red Rock 200 lets racers test their physical strength and endurance in one challenging, inspiring day on the beautiful roads of Southern Utah.

This is not a traditional double century! Racers may bring their own crew and/or may take advantage of three neutral support checkpoints along the route.

DISTANCE:  200 miles (unless re-routing is required due to road closures or other circumstances) with about 10,400' climbing.

ROUTE: To view the Official Route of the Red Rock 200 as an excel file, click here. Please note that there may be minor changes made to the route before race day. Generally speaking, the race follows a course starting in St. George, and traveling through Gunlock, Veyo, Enterprise, and Newcastle, with the turn-around in Cedar City. The course returns on the same route through Veyo, but heads home via Snow Canyon. The route travels on wonderful, well-maintained, quiet roads with little traffic and breath-taking scenery.
