38KM MARATHON
The 38km route is tailored for runners looking for a slightly less intense, yet equally picturesque trail running experience. This course follows much of the 50km path but with an earlier finish that still captures the essence of high-altitude running.
Starting with the same 8km loop as the 50km race, this route diverges after the 36km mark, leading to a unique path back to Maliba Lodge. It includes the same early steep climbs and high ridges, offering runners immersive views and challenging terrain.
