About the Yerevan Marathon

As the longest race at Yerevan's major running festival, the marathon shares a central event village with several shorter distances and a broad local field.

Course

The road route starts and finishes in central Yerevan and visits the Hrazdan River gorge. The organizer lists about 300 meters of climbing over the marathon, at altitudes between 970 and 1,070 meters.

Race-day weather

October is often cool and dry, though bright sun or wind can make exposed sections warmer. Yerevan's elevation also affects runners arriving from sea level.
