      Matterhorn Ultraks is a high‑alpine trail running festival organised by Ultraks SA in Zermatt, Switzerland, scheduled for 21–23 August 2026. The event brings together multiple mountain races that start from the Ultraks Plaza / Obere Matten area and traverse technical alpine terrain with extensive elevation gain, framed by the Matterhorn. The official site and programme provide dedicated race pages, a runners' guide, a GoActive registration link and a results portal for competitors and spectators.

      The 2026 edition comprises a range of distances from a children's race through short and medium mountain courses to the 49 km Sky race, plus a night vertical (VERTINIGHT) and a relay option. The event pages currently show all categories as Sold Out, with bib distribution, prize ceremonies and finish locations (for example VERTINIGHT finishing at Sunnegga) listed in the programme. Practical information for travel, accommodation and race logistics is provided on the Zermatt section of the official site.
