THE RUNNING ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME
Imagine yourself on a journey that flows from Banff Central Park, runs past Vermilion Lakes, the Legacy Trail and up the Bow Valley Parkway and finishes in beautiful downtown Banff. The scenery is breathtaking and you will experience many different interpretive, geographical, wilderness and historical stages on your trek. Although the run takes place in the beautiful Rocky Mountains, the course is not too grueling with a slightly rolling and relatively flat terrain.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL RUN ON THE PLANET
The Banff Half Marathon and 10K offers one of the planets’ most incredible and beautiful running experiences in Banff, Alberta - Canada's first National Park. There are limited spots available for this event and thousands were turned away for the 2024 event so register soon to avoid disappointment! Starting in the picturesque mountain town of Banff, participants will flow through a series of incredible natural, wildlife, and historical stages as they pass by the serene Vermilion Lakes, Legacy Trail and Bow Valley Parkway. The return trek will travel back alongside Vermilion Lakes and the Bow River to cheering crowds in Banff’s downtown Central Park.
The Banff Half not only offers the run events, but also many “Sports Festival” weekend activities including:
-
Sport Expo
-
Shake Out Run
-
Yoga in the Park
-
Free Kids Run
-
All of the beauty and activities that Banff National Park has to offer. Many of the participants and their families make time for hiking, the gondola, hot springs, wildlife watching, cycling, shopping, boat tours and more in beautiful Banff!
