About The Race
The Victoria Falls Marathon,
has been developed in conjunction with the National
Athletics Association of Zimbabwe, and is AIMS
registered to provide a platform for both local and
international runners to pitch themselves against the
best! The route is fast and relatively flat and
is supported by regular water points and cooling down
sections, all ably managed by the sponsors. The
route crosses over the Vic Falls Bridge, briefly into
Zambia offering the social runner some of the
most spectacular scenery in Africa.
A full 42.2km and 21.2km are available. Victoria Falls has long been known as the adventure centre of Africa, and for good reason. There is a wealth of activities available! Choose from one of the travel packages, or tailormake your own and combine the marathon with some rafting, canoeing,game viewing, an elephant back safari or even a bungi jump! Safaris to neighbouring Botswana and Zambia are also available
and Wild Frontiers, the official organiser,would be
happy to put together some options for your consideration.
There are daily flights to the Falls from Johannesburg,
and link in easily from international flights
to the region.
