The GW100 trail run was designed around the most prestigious part of the Great Wall, known as the “Jinshanling” section". The route runs across the Yan Mountains, which is a major mountain range to the north of the North China Plain. This race allows people to immersively experience Chinese culture, through the exciting approach of trail running.
The most popular group of the event, is mainly for runners who just got into trail running or are transitioning from road running to trail running. The 30k covers the same route as the 50k track, but takes an early exit after the Great Wall section and goes for the finish line.
