Palisades Half Marathon

The Palisades Half Marathon + 8K Trail Run, organized by the Palisades Parks Conservancy, takes place at the Ross Dock Picnic Area in Fort Lee, NJ, inside the Palisades Interstate Park. The event offers two courses: a breathtaking 13.1-mile paved half marathon with about 1,200 feet of elevation along the Hudson River and Palisades ridge, and a shorter 8K mixed-terrain trail run along the shore trail, the Long Path, and cliff climbs. Both races start and finish at Ross Dock.

Limited parking is available by reservation, and a shuttle from uptown Manhattan is provided. Proceeds benefit the Palisades Parks Conservancy’s park network. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
