Petra Desert Marathon 2025

See you on the desert trail!

Starting in the ancient cave city of Petra, the Petra Desert Marathon leads runners past incredible tombs, mountainside carvings, and caves before venturing into the arid, lunar-like landscapes of the Jordanian desert.

Before and after the marathon, you'll get the pleasure of tasting delicious Jordanian cuisine, meeting welcoming people, and immersing yourself in their rich history and culture with other running-minded spirits. 

You can also extend your stay in Jordan with tours suited for the adventurous or the cultural traveller.
