The new Banff Marathon will offer one of the planet’s most incredible and beautiful running experiences in Canada’s first National Park. The participants will flow through a series of incredible natural, wildlife, and historical stages – the “Bow Valley Experience”. Each stage is a different chapter of the Valley’s story and is represented by an icon that is relevant to the area and its significance. The route will be a point-to-point journey that will start south of Lake Louise and travel down the Bow Valley Parkway, join the new Legacy Trail and pass the serene Vermilion Lakes to finish of cheering crowds in downtown Banff.
