Event Detail
Phutajor Trail 69 (ภูตาจอเทรล๖๙) is scheduled for Sunday 29 November 2026 in the forested hills of Kapong District, Phang Nga, southern Thailand. This is the fifth edition of a trail-running event associated with Phu Ta Chor, a highland area known for steep terrain and mountain scenery. It is a mountain race, not a road half marathon, so distance, climbing and weather exposure should all be considered when choosing a category.
Four advertised distances
The 2026 organiser announcement, reproduced in the RUNLAH event listing, advertises four entry options:
- 7 km: THB 700, the shortest listed route.
- 23 km: THB 1,000, a separate category from the 25 km race.
- 25 km: THB 1,000, a longer-distance mountain option.
- 48 km: THB 1,300, the longest advertised category.
The exact-distance ARC filters presently available for this record cover 7K and 25K. The 23K and 48K categories remain real, separate options and are described here instead of being incorrectly renamed as a 21K half marathon or 50K ultra. A third-party trail database uses a different 49 km label for one long route, but that should not override the 48 km length in the current organiser-sourced event announcement without fresh course confirmation.
Course and location
The announced meeting area is the uphill approach or trailhead for Phu Ta Chor, within Kapong, Phang Nga Province. The setting suggests natural mountain paths rather than sealed urban streets. Allow for uneven footing, gradients and potentially variable conditions, and assess your experience realistically before committing to one of the longer distances.
At the time of this check, the publicly accessible event listings do not supply a fully verified 2026 course map, GPX tracks, exact elevation gain for each of the four advertised routes or a surveyed start-line location. The approximate map point on this listing is a regional reference, not confirmation of the organisers' actual check-in or start gate. Confirm your navigation and transport arrangements against the official runner briefing.
Timetable, registration and runner requirements
The confirmed date is 29 November 2026, in Thailand time (UTC+7). Individual flag-off times are still unverified. ARC's 00:00 calendar value is only a date placeholder and must not be interpreted as a mandatory midnight start.
The organiser's registration destination is race.thai.run/phutajortrail69. That page did not provide independently readable live ticket availability during this check, so the event should not be marked sold out, open or closed solely on that basis. The 2026 registration closing date is also unconfirmed. The current organiser-originated listing provides prices but not a reliable closing deadline.
Race-pack pickup times and location, age and fitness eligibility, category cut-offs, compulsory trail equipment, aid-station locations, prize structure and cancellation arrangements have not been verified from a current-edition organiser technical guide. Do not infer these from other editions or similarly named events. Longer-distance participants should seek the official kit and safety instructions before race week.
Organiser and updates
The named organiser is KTU Trail Co., Ltd. (บริษัท เคทียู เทรล จำกัด), with event contact +66 86 905 9924. RUNLAH also links to an organiser Facebook profile and to the source announcement. Check these channels for updates to course distances, bib collection, start waves and the event's status rather than relying on social reposts with unclear dates.
