The Banff Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K offers one of the planets’ most incredible and beautiful running experiences, all in Canada's first National Park.  Starting in the picturesque mountain village of Banff, full and half marathon participants will flow through a series of incredible natural, wildlife, and historical stages as they pass by the serene Vermilion Lakes and journey along the stunning Bow Valley Parkway. The return journey will travel along the same route, but with a whole new view of stunning mountain vistas to the east and south.  As you arrive back to town you will travel alongside the beautiful Bow River and finish to cheering crowds in beautiful Central Park in downtown Banff.
