Hong Kong 100 Ultra Marathon

For those who prefer the rugged trails over the city streets, the HK100 is the ultimate January challenge. This world-renowned ultra-marathon takes runners through the pristine beauty of the Sai Kung Peninsula, passing through ancient villages, remote beaches, and dense forests before the grueling final climb over Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong’s highest peak. It’s a race that tests mental grit just as much as physical stamina, all while offering some of the most breathtaking views in Asia.

The atmosphere at the finish line at the Rotary Club Park is one of pure relief and triumph. Even if you aren't running the full 100km, the "The Third" (33km) and "The Half" (56km) races allow a wider range of trail enthusiasts to experience the magic of the Maclehose Trail. It’s a weekend that celebrates the "wild" side of Hong Kong, attracting elite international trail runners and local hikers alike for a shared journey through the city’s stunning green lung.
