UTAT: LOGISTICS AND FOOD SUPPLIES

ORGANIZING AN ULTRA TRAIL IN A REGION AS PRESERVED AS THE HIGH ATLAS REQUIRES EXCEPTIONAL LOGISTICS ADAPTED TO THE HIGH ALTITUDE. ALL THE TEAM OF THE UTAT IS 200% COMMITTED TO THE SUCCESS OF YOUR JOURNEY AND RACE.

100 muleteers / guide mobilized.

A large part of the Atlas trails do not allow motorized access. Fortunately there are the muleteers! These guides live year-round in the region and know the massif to the slightest stone. They are the ones who carry the hardware to the PC. The guides are precious, it’s very simple, without them the UTAT would not!

Food and water supplies

The quality of food supplies is a very important criterion for most runners … and we understand them!

With this in mind, everything is set up to offer you great refreshments. Water, sweet drinks, dates, fruit, dried fruit, bread, olive oil, soups or tajines (depending on the cook’s mood!) will accompany you throughout your effort. Be careful though! The UTAT runs in semi-autonomy so you will find:

The highest radio network in North Africa

Good communication is essential to the success of an event and to the follow-up of the riders.

To achieve this, we set up a unique radio network. Relay antennas are positioned on the high peaks that grid the different routes to ensure the safety of the trailers. Thus each PC is in permanent radio communication with the racing PC located on the plateau of Oukaïmeden, starting point and finish of the race.

Health above everything else !

On PCs, our professional healthcare volunteers are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment imported from France. Each year, not less than 2 tons of medical equipment cross the Mediterranean for UTAT : cardioscopes defibrillators Resuscitation Bag. All that is needed to cure the usual small injuries of an ultra trail.

Our teams ensure the tracking of the runners 24 hours a day at the various points of control, with in case of repatriation a zone of landing for helicopter to ensure the emergencies.
