Obstacle Run

Who Can Attend?

Anyone! We have no age restrictions, but minors must be accompanied by a legal guardian.

Permitted access to the park:

Wear proper closed shoes (no sandals or flip-flops allowed) and we recommend wearing gloves. Be prepared to get dirty.

What To Expect?

There is approximately 1km of running distance including different obstacles which can be combined with the cliff loop hike to sum up 2km of distance and extra elevation. If this is not enough, trail and ultra runners can extend their running distance by including the longer hiking trails. The obstacles will require to climb, jump, crawl, swing, balance, and you might get wet. (Mud and water is only there during events or if you book for groups of more than 15 people in advance).

For our obstacle trail running events, we extend the run to the whole park and also include the off-roading obstacles which are usually used for cars.

Obstacle races have gained a lot of popularity over the last few years in the UAE since they demand physical and mental abilities. It was a logical step to not only challenge visitors in the driver’s seat, but also to get them moving and to enjoy a full fun filled day at XQuarry. With this in mind, the car entry fee gives you access to the entire park and all its activities.
