Hellz Bellz Ultra

Hellz Bellz Ultra is a challenging 50-mile trail race held in Yacolt, Washington, starting at Yacolt Recreation Park. The course features a tough climb up Bells Mountain, multiple clear cuts, stream crossings, and stunning views of Mt. St.

Helens. Around mile 10, runners reach the Yacolt Burn Aid Station before embarking on a 22-mile counterclockwise loop on the technical Tarbell Trail, which includes waterfalls and scenic vistas. The race finishes with a 10-mile descent back down Bells Mountain, culminating in ringing the finish bell.

Four fully stocked aid stations support runners, and a smaller Purgatory Trail Marathon is also offered. Camping and local festivities enhance the event atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
