Ladakh Marathon

The Ladakh Marathon is a supreme test of endurance for athletes, set in the breathtaking terrains of one of the world's highest regions. Featuring the Khardungla Challenge, the highest ultra marathon globally at 5370m, participants tackle a demanding 72km course that pushes the limits of human capability. Due to its high-altitude environment, at 3500m above sea level, athletes must arrive in Leh at least a week prior to acclimatize for optimal performance. Compete in a unique environment through Leh, the historic capital of Ladakh, alongside local runners. The stunning vistas of mountains, rivers, and valleys provide an unforgettable backdrop for this extraordinary race. Part of AIMS since 2015, the Ladakh Marathon is heralded internationally as one of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring races, offering athletes the chance to create lifelong memories and achieve a remarkable milestone.
