The Angkor Empire Marathon is a road race that starts and finishes in front of the Central Sanctuary of Angkor Wat, passing many historical monuments, nearly 40 ancient temples, smooth roads, forested stretches, and rice fields.

Why attend here

August in Siem Reap brings the lush green of the rainy season, making the jungle trails around Angkor feel vibrant and alive. Between the marathon, you can explore the vast temple complex at your own pace, catch sunrise over Angkor Wat, and refuel with a bowl of fiery fish amok or a refreshing sugarcane drink from the local markets.
