Summary: A scenic, family-friendly course at the base of the Teton range. Starts on the Town Square in downtown Jackson Hole and finishes at the base of the tram tower in iconic Teton Village, WY. Also a Half-marathon and Marathon Relay.

The Jackson Hole Marathon & Half Marathon encapsulates the quintessential mountain race experience, coupling challenging distances with the stunning backdrops of Wyoming's rugged landscapes. From the fresh, crisp air of an early morning start in Jackson Hole to the grand finale in the scenic Teton Village, every mile offers a feast for the senses and a test of endurance.

With a course that weaves through quaint towns, serene bike paths, and panoramic views of the Teton Range, runners are treated to a visual spectacle unlike any other in the United States. Wildlife sightings - from foxes darting between runners to potential glimpses of moose and elk - add an unpredictable thrill to the journey. The path's gentle undulations provide a manageable challenge, complemented by the supportive cheers of volunteers at well-stocked aid stations, though sparse crowd support gives parts of the race a more introspective flavor.

The race is celebrated not only for its breathtaking course but also for its thoughtful organization. Essentials like early morning shuttles and a no-cup policy at hydration stations underscore a commitment to environmental stewardship and runner convenience. The altitude, while a consideration for those not acclimated, adds a layer of challenge that makes finishing all the more satisfying.

Runners often conclude their marathon experience with visits to nearby national parks, turning their race into a memorable vacation. The Jackson Hole Marathon & Half Marathon isn't just a race; it's a gateway to adventure, combining the thrill of long-distance running with the awe of Wyoming's natural beauty. The Jackson Hole Marathon races cover the best of the Jackson Hole Valley and finish at the base of the Teton Mountain Range in Teton Village. If the altitude doesn’t take your breath away, the scenery certainly will! While you’re here, enjoy Jackson’s vibrant food and art scene, sample some of the best craft breweries in the country, and explore endless open space in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, and Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks.
