GTR Trail Run Mancherial is a solo 30 km trail race held on 11 October 2026, starting at 06:00 from the Mancherial area in Telangana, India. Runners cover forest trails with around 500 m of climbing and 100 m of descent, supported by five aid stations and given six hours to complete the distance. The event is run in aid of what the organiser calls India's first climate restoration, and every runner is given a geo-tagged record of their run once they finish. The field is capped at 300 participants, which keeps the start line small and the woodland trails quiet underfoot.

Other questions
The organiser says every runner is given a geo-tagged record after their run is completed. It is presented as part of the event's identity, alongside its climate restoration purpose, so treat it as a memento of where you ran rather than a timing chip.
The event describes itself as India's first climate restoration run and takes place in forest. The organiser's framing is that running and restoring green cover go together; ask them directly for the specific projects your entry supports.
It is a trail race that runs in forest, not on road. Expect uneven woodland surfaces and natural obstacles rather than tarmac, which is why the 30 km takes considerably longer than a road 30 km would.
The course climbs about 500 m and descends roughly 100 m, so the climbing is moderate for a trail race of this distance. Combined with forest terrain and a six-hour limit it suits runners with some off-road experience rather than first-timers on technical ground.
No. There is no qualification standard for the 30 km, only the 300-runner field limit and the six-hour cut-off on race day.
