Halong Bay Heritage Marathon is one of the biggest, most professional and well-organized international marathons in Vietnam. It is normally held on the last Sunday of November in Halong Bay, the World’s Natural Heritage Site internationally recognized by UNESCO.
The race aims at creating a healthy and active environment for running enthusiasts to challenge themselves as well as to meet and share their experiences. The design of the running courses offers a unique stunning course across Bai Chay Bridge, the longest single span bridge in Southeast Asia, providing runners with a spectacular view from above to the magnificent Halong Bay. The route continues through picturesque spots of mountains and coastal lines along the bay and beautiful fishing villages.
The race starts and finishes at the Quang Ninh Planning, Fair and Exhibition Palace (Cung Quy hoạch Hội chợ và Triển lãm Quảng Ninh) (Address: Tran Quoc Nghien street, Ha Long city, next to the Museum and Library of Ha Long). The Start/Finish Line is at the central beachfront area, allowing easy access from other tourist sites in the area.
Join Halong Bay Heritage Marathon – a convergent place for all running feet and nature lovers.
