Bearfest Marathon

Website

The Bearfest Marathon is part of the Alaska Bearfest held annually in Wrangell, Alaska, located in the scenic Tongass National Forest. This event celebrates the region's rich natural heritage, including its black and brown bears, through a variety of activities such as symposiums, cultural events, art and photo workshops, fine dining, and the marathon itself. The marathon offers participants a unique experience running amidst craggy mountain peaks, lush temperate rainforests, and glaciers, reflecting the area's rugged wilderness.

Bearfest takes place in late July, providing a festive atmosphere that honors the bears and the natural environment of Southeast Alaska. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
