Description:The Chicamocha Canyon Race is one of the most demanding and visually striking trail and ultradistance events in Colombia. It takes place in the dramatic Chicamocha Canyon, in Santander, a natural setting defined by massive elevation changes, technical terrain, and extreme climate conditions that test both physical endurance and mental resilience. This is not a conventional race. It is a raw mountain experience: sustained climbs, aggressive descents, ancient stone paths, colonial towns, and temperatures that can shift from chilly pre-dawn air to intense midday heat. Each distance — from half marathon to 100 miles — requires strategy, adaptability, and disciplined energy management. With more than a decade of history, the event has established itself as a benchmark in Latin American trail running, attracting national and international athletes seeking more than just a bib number. They come for a genuine challenge. In Chicamocha, you do not simply run — you confront the mountain.
