About the Race

The Gobi March (Mongolia) 2022 begins on 19 June at the Khar Bukh Balgas Fortress and takes place in the stunning Karakorum region of Central Mongolia. Competitors will weave their way across wide Mongolian steppes, sand dunes and great rock valleys as they complete the 250-kilometer / 155-mile course. This also includes vast green grasslands, stupas and temples, and old forests. At times, competitors will sleep in traditional Mongolian Gers. The race makes its way across the battlefield of Genghis Khan towards the UNESCO World Heritage Centre of the Orkhon Valley and further to the ancient city of Karakorum.
