Key Facts

Standouts

---

A flat and fast marathon around one of North China's most important wetlands, circling Hengshui Lake with expansive lotus ponds and reed beds.

Why attend here

Late September in Hengshui brings the lake's reed beds to their golden peak, a serene backdrop for a marathon that winds past lotus ponds and migratory bird flocks. Before or after the race, walk the lake's boardwalks to spot cranes and herons, then warm up with a bowl of local lake fish soup and fresh steamed buns from the nearby market.
