The field notes
About
A two-day trail-running event sends runners into Nan's steep, green mountain country. Multiple race distances make it a serious sporting weekend as well as a reason for active travellers to spend time in one of northern Thailand's quieter provinces.
Highlights
- Mountain trail routes in one of Thailand's least crowded northern provinces
- A full race weekend rather than a single road event
- An active anchor for a wider Nan trip
Plan it well
- Use the organiser's current race pack—not a listing page—for distance, kit and cut-off rules.
- Arrive at least a day early; transport options into Nan are limited compared with Chiang Mai.
- October trails can still be wet, so train and pack for slippery ground.
