Vietnam Highlands Trail 20K PINHATT (Vietnam) 2027
Also known as: Vietnam Highlands by UTMB
Starting and finishing at Tuyen Lam Lake near Da Lat, the course climbs Pinhatt Peak, which looks down over the lake. The scenery shifts from open pine forest to primary forest and rare red pine groves, and despite the short distance there are steep climbs and technical trails.
The course tops out at 1,695 m (low point 1,379 m). The main climb comes mid-race: 310 m around 8–15 km. About 30% of the distance is gentle (under 5% grade). In 2026, 84% of starters finished. The median finish was about 7 h.
