The Ultramarathon achievement requires players to travel at least 960 km. This guide will list an estimation of travel distances for different activities, for better planning on how to get this achievement.
Wstęp
Ultramarathon is one of the hardest achievements to grind in Dying Light 2. There is very little information about it, and most guides are about using a controller and placing rubber bands on the joystick for the player to run infinitely while being idle.
But how do you achieve this legitimately without spending several hours on the game? First it’s needed to know what counts and what doesn’t when it comes to traveling, and how far the distance is for different activities. Activities from the DLC Bloody Ties has no part in this guide.
What counts:
- Sprint
- Dashing
- Swimming
- Climbing
- Using lifts
- Using the elevator in the VNC Tower
What doesn’t count:
- Falling
- Using the Paraglider
- Using Fast Travel
- Using Zip Lines
- Using the Grappling Hook
In order to see your current travel distance, head to the main menu and click on
Dodatki. Top right corner of the screen will show how much you’ve traveled in meters.
Prolog
Doing the prologue can give around 4780 metrów, which takes around 1 hour speed-running it.
Statistically re-playing the prologue around 201 times will result in 960 km travel distance.
Using The Lifts
Using lifts grants travel distance. I’ve estimated the distances for some lifts in Central Loop.
- Park Nowego Świtu:
- West side of the Fish Eye
- South side of the Fish Eye
- East side of the Fish Eye
- North side of the Fish Eye
- Northwest side of the Fish Eye
- Śródmieście:
- West of Artist Workshop (if it’s Survivor Territory)
- North of Downtown court metro station

≈ 67 metrówStatistically going up and down for all the lifts mentioned here will grant roughly 468 metrów, meaning it has to be done around 2051 times in order to get the achievement.
VNC Tower Elevator
Going up and down the elevator counts for distance travel. According to
[dyinglight.fandom.com]the VNC tower is 310 meters tall. However when I tested the distance, going from the PK outpost up to the roof granted me around
315 metrów. Going down from the PK outpost to the ground floor was around
45 metrów, meaning taking the elevator from the ground floor all the way up to the roof will be
360 metrówwhile standing still. This process also takes about 1 minute and 20 towary drugiej jakości. Walking around in the elevator can give around 510 metrów.
Statistically using the elevator, while standing still, will require about 2667 przejażdżki (either up or down) which will take around 58 hours to do. Walking around during the ride will take 1882 rides and about 41 hours to do.
Jumping down from the VNC Tower
nie będziegrant any travel distance.
Standing still:
Walking around:
There’s also a possibility to climb up the VNC Tower instead, in case you enjoy parkour more than running around in the elevator.
See this video to see how:
When I climbed the VNC tower starting from the safe zone in the PK outpost, granted me about 1526 metrów which took around 14 protokół, however it is possible to do it faster.
Statistically it will take about 629 times to climb up the VNC tower and about 147 hours to achieve 960 km.
Traveling Between Old Villedor and Central Loop
Traveling by foot between the two maps is a great way to farm travel distance. Depending on where you start, sprinting from Old Villedor to Central Loop by going through the metro as done during the
Let’s Waltz!quest will grant about
1,2 – 1,5 km. This can take more or less 5 protokół.
See this video that shows how to do it:
Wyzwania Parkourowe
Parkour Challenges were tricky to estimate the travel distances, however it’s estimated to give between
200 – 500 metrówper challenge, depending on the type of challenge.
Tam są 17 parkour challenges in the game, excluding Paraglider City Tour (where the paraglider is needed). Let’s say the average distance for the challenges are 250 metrów.
Statistically doing all these challenges more or less than 226 times will grant the achievement.
Wniosek
After this experiment, it’s safe to say that the most time saving method is riding the VNC Tower elevator and running around in it.
So when playing the game, keep in mind is that it’s good to climb up tall buildings, walking between the two maps and doing the challenges. Walking to each challenge and doing them will most likely give a larger number than what was mentioned in this guide, which only included doing the actual challenge, and not what’s in between.
A reminder that the numbers can be a little bit off since it was difficult to give perfect accurate distance estimations, but they are pretty accurate.
Dziękujemy za przeczytanie tego przewodnika, hopefully it’s helpful. More stuff will probably be added in the future. All pictures are taken by me using photo mode.
Ciekawostka, I learned that the going to sleep animation gives 2 metrów.
