Nortura Laoshan Mountain Race 2026 (2026诺诗兰老山跑山赛)

The 2026 Nortura Laoshan Mountain Race takes place on December 12 and 13, 2026, near Nanjing City's Pukou District. The race features several challenging courses designed for runners of all ages and skill levels.
On the first day, December 12, two youth-oriented races are held: a 5-kilometer event starting at 9:00 AM with a total elevation gain of 300 meters, and a 9-kilometer race beginning ten minutes later. Both courses wind through scenic mountain terrain and offer breathtaking views.
The second day sees three more demanding routes open to participants. The longest course is the 24-kilometer run, starting at 8:30 AM on December 13 with an elevation gain of over 1200 meters. This challenging route is ideal for experienced runners seeking a rigorous test of endurance and skill.
Two shorter options are also available: a 15-kilometer race featuring nearly 800 meters of climbing, and a 7-kilometer course that includes more than 350 meters in elevation gain. Both start at the same time as the 24-km event but have earlier cutoff times.
Early bird registration with discounted rates is available until November 1st for all categories. Runners can expect steep ascents, scenic vistas, and a competitive yet supportive atmosphere throughout both days of racing.
