The Early Years
2004Established in 2004, the Patagonia International Marathon is now 22 years old. From its first edition in Torres del Paine, it has evolved into a race that reflects the character of its host region in Chile.
Bana och höjdprofil
One of the world's most scenic marathons, the course circumnavigates the iconic towers and lakes of Torres del Paine National Park. Runners experience dramatic granite peaks, turquoise glacial lakes, and windswept Patagonian steppe with multiple substantial climbs and descents throughout the route. The landscape is utterly unforgiving yet breathtakingly beautiful, with support stations set against world-class natural backdrops.

Historia & Legender
The Hills That Break You
With 1240m of elevation gain, the Patagonia International Marathon is not a course for the faint-hearted. The climbs are where races are won and lost — where the gap between training and undertrained reveals itself without mercy. Locals say the course doesn't beat you; it just waits for you to beat yourself.
Only the Committed Finish
The Patagonia International Marathon carries an "extreme" difficulty rating for good reason. The combination of terrain, conditions, and distance creates an event where finishing is a genuine achievement. Drop-out rates are high, preparation requirements are serious, and the line between adventure and misadventure is thin.
