About the Event

The Skagway Marathon, Half Marathon and Walking Half Marathon is an amazing race that takes place in the wilderness of Alaska. This 26-mile run climbs multiple hills as it traces its way through pristine Southeast Alaskan fjord coastline, through a glacially-carved valley, an enchanting Sitka Spruce wood, over the Taiya River trestle bridge, past numerous trickling streams, up West Creek Valley, before finally reaching a forest opening with a spectacular view of West Creek Glacier and breathtaking mountain peaks and alpine scenery.

Yeah… Whoa is right.

Race Day is Saturday, June 13th, 2026. Full marathon and walking half marathon starts 8am. Half running marathon starts 9am. Please see our website for more details www.skagwaymarathon.org
