Course details
Full Marathon:
The Full Marathon takes participants through 42 km of challenging yet rewarding terrain. The route is a perfect blend of rural beauty, with approximately 50% of the path on hard-packed dirt trails and the other 50% on paved roads. Runners traverse vibrant villages, lush forests, and scenic riversides, experiencing Bhutan’s natural wonders up close. The course offers a gradual descent with an overall elevation loss of 1,000 feet, making it manageable yet physically demanding. At the 18.6-mile mark, runners cross the famous 300-foot-long suspension bridge over the Pho Chhu River, a highlight of the course. After traversing more hard-packed dirt paths, the final stretch leads participants back to the picturesque Punakha Dzong, with a cut-off time of 7 hours.
Half Marathon:
The Half Marathon, starting at an elevation of approximately 4,311 feet, offers a more condensed but equally adventurous route through Bhutan’s rural countryside. With 40% of the course on hard-packed dirt and 60% on paved roads, this 21 km journey presents a dynamic mix of terrain, providing runners with spectacular views of Khamsum Yulley Temple, the Mo Chhu River, and the stunning Punakha Valley.
