The Polar Circle Marathon

 

The race only for the brave.


Every year at the end of October, the Polar Circle Marathon is held in Greenland, the largest ice island in the world. It is a 42 kms marathon. It is one of the most exclusive races in the world since logistics in the area limits the number of participants to a total of 250.

The terrain is mountainous until the end, with the steepest ascents being the climb that comes out of the ice sheet and the climb of approximately 75 meters high that is 5 km before the finish line.
Marathoners often come across oxen, reindeer and other animals that inhabit the Arctic desert and due to the danger of falling into a crevasse, runners are strictly prohibited from leaving the route marked on the ice sheet. An international team of doctors and nurses is available before, during and after the marathon.

The Polar Circle Marathon has been organized by Albatross Adventures since 2001 and since then it has been held annually, during the month of October.

The intention is focused on living great experiences, challenging the limits and achieving something extraordinary. It has been dubbed the coldest marathon and one of the most difficult but at the same time most beautiful in the world by a variety of magazines and blogs.
To register for the race, participants must register on an online page as availability is limited, this is to ensure the safety of all participants.
