ARIZONA TRAIL RACE FAQ
The Arizona Trail Race FAQ is here to help you navigate the brutal reality of bikepacking across the Arizona desert. The AZTR isn’t just a race—it’s a battle against oppressive heat, relentless climbs, rocky singletrack, and some of the longest dry stretches of any ultra-endurance event. Whether you’re taking on the full 800-mile route or the shorter 300-mile version, this race demands careful planning, strategic resupply, and absolute self-sufficiency.
Much of the information in this Arizona Trail Race FAQ comes from the Project’s Arizona Trail Race Rider Survey, where past participants share firsthand insights on what gear worked, where to find water, and how to survive the desert extremes. If you’ve raced the AZTR, take the survey and help the next generation of riders prepare for one of the toughest bikepacking challenges out there.
