Rocky Mountain Half Marathon

Get ready to elevate your running experience at the Rocky Mountain Half Marathon and 5K in Estes Park, Colorado. This high-altitude race offers athletes breathtaking mountain views as you race just outside the iconic Rocky Mountain National Park. The paved loop half marathon course challenges runners with a 780 ft (238 m) elevation gain, reaching a peak height of 7,906 ft (2,410 m). Expect a combination of steady climbs and rolling descents culminating in a scenic finish around Lake Estes.

Beyond the race, enjoy the vibrant atmosphere at Stanley Park, featuring an expo and the warm hospitality of a mountain-town community. The demanding elevation offers both a test of fitness and a reward of stunning scenery every mile.
