Banff Half Marathon
The Banff Half Marathon and 10K take place in Banff, Alberta, inside Banff National Park on June 20, 2027. The route begins at Banff Central Park, runs past Vermilion Lakes and the Legacy Trail, travels up the Bow Valley Parkway, and returns alongside Vermilion Lakes and the Bow River to downtown Central Park.
The course is described as slightly rolling with relatively flat terrain. Entry capacity is limited; the site notes that many registrants were turned away for the 2024 event. A virtual run option is available and a virtual race bib is mentioned.
The event is presented as a weekend sports festival that includes a Sport Expo, a Shake Out Run, Yoga in the Park, and a Free Kids Run. The organizer provides information on transportation, parking, race pack pick up, course amenities, COVID safety, and volunteer opportunities.
Visitors and participants often combine the event with local activities in Banff National Park such as hiking, the gondola, hot springs, wildlife watching, cycling, shopping, and boat tours. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
