Útiliv Adventure Festival

About this race

The Utiliv Adventure Festival is a multi-day trail-running festival based at Torshavn on Streymoy in the Faroe Islands, a rugged 18-island North Atlantic archipelago between Iceland and Scotland. Its chip-timed trail races span 10K, 21K, a 42K trail marathon and a signature 65K ultra, crossing razor-sharp mountain ridgelines, sea cliffs and green fjord valleys, never more than 4km from the ocean, in wild, fast-changing late-August weather. The event also brands itself Atjan Wild Islands.
