Have you ever felt completely insignificant in comparison to nature? Well, get ready to feel precisely that way among the turquoise waters, glaciers and towering granite horns of the Torres del Paine National Park. The jaw-dropping landscapes of this eighth wonder of the world are humbling indeed.
Marathon Tours & Travel has partnered with The Massif®, a Magellan family business that recognizes the relevance and natural heritage value of Torres del Paine. Our PATAGONIA RUNNING FESTIVAL packages have been designed to bring together global runners to participate in the best race day and adventure travel experience that Chilean Patagonia has to offer. Running within Torres del Paine National Park runners can choose from the Ultra 50K, Marathon, Half-Marathon, 10K and the new 5K distances. After fulfilling the dream of running in one of the most pristine places on the planet, you will cross the finish line conveniently located at our Hotel Rio Serrano & Spa and join the post-race celebration!
Once again, Marathon Tours will offer seven-night (Experience Chile) and five-night (Experience Patagonia) packages. In addition, they’re excited to offer a new option: Atacama to Patagonia Ten-Night Package! All packages include accommodations in Patagonia at the Hotel Rio Serrano & Spa and their “all-inclusive” packages that include 12 daily excursions with trekking, boating, horseback riding and climbing options so you can explore this UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve on the non-race days.
What else can you expect? Terrific wildlife-watching in Torres del Paine; seeing majestic condors soaring in the skies overhead; spotting foxes, huemul or Andean deer and guanacos along the way; and if you lie in wait patiently, you might be lucky enough to spot the reclusive puma!

Be prepared to love Chile if you go and take some time to explore before/after this race. The run is on gravel and the road is hilly but follows the lake makes the challenge worth it. Wind can be a factor but this is not your average run in the park. Torres del Paine National park and the Rio Serrano impressed.
