Overview

The KCTCT The Cascade is a 54 km trail race in Koh Chang Tai, Thailand, that first ran in 2026. With 2415m of elevation gain, its 44.7m of climb per kilometer makes this 50k race more challenging than most. The entry fee is 2500 ฿.

The 17-hour time limit is tighter than 7% of 50k races, requiring a pace under 18.9 minutes per kilometer. The small field of 15 finishers in 2026 means this race has a smaller field than 24% of 50k races.
