The race of the lakes
Its characteristics have made it one of the most valued challenges of HOKA Val d'Aran by UTMB®.
The PDA, Peades d'Aigua, is an authentic adventure through the mountains of Naut Aran. 55 kilometres to let yourself be surprised by a spectacle of incomparable beauty.
With 3,300 metres of positive ascent and 3,700 metres of negative ascent, the race starts in the village of Salardú and crosses one of the most impressive places in the Val d'Aran, Colomèrs, the largest glacial lake cirque in the Pyrenees.
A race that conquers and that every year hangs up the "sold out" sign.
At the race-pack collection, each participant receives a 30-liter bag. After filling it with the items of their choice and closing it, they can drop it in a place close to the starting line. The bags are then returned to Vielha.
How to get your bags in Vielha: The bags are returned to either the runner or a family member or friend, only upon presentation of the race-bib. The bags must be retrieved no later than 2 hours after the end of the race. After that time, the runner must come, in person, to retrieve their bag at the organization headquarters in Vielha.
The organization will take to Vielha the bags of runners who drop out, on condition that their withdrawal is registered. Because of logistical factors, the organization cannot guarantee that all bags are brought to Vielha before the end of the race.
Only bags supplied by the organization will be transported. Poles are not allowed in these bags. As the items in the bags are neither checked nor controlled, we will accept no claims on that matter. We recommend not to put any valuable items in the bags. We advise you to keep toiletries and spare clothes in Vielha.
For logistics reasons, UTMB® World series events only accept the UTMB® World series spare bags that are distributed during the check-In. Those bags are reusable, so we ask the runners who already have received one of those bags to reuse it each time they take part in a UTMB® World Series event.
Assistance is NOT allowed in the race, at any point of the course.
Pacers are not allowed to set the pace in the race.
