Zion Half Marathon
Vacation Races' Zion Half runs point-to-point from La Verkin to Springdale on Saturday, February 27, 2027.
The Zion Half Marathon runs on Saturday, February 27, 2027, a point-to-point 13.1-mile road race that starts near La Verkin and climbs steadily to a finish at Cable Mountain Lodge in Springdale, just outside Zion National Park's south entrance. The course threads the gateway communities along the Virgin River with open desert sky and red rock the whole way. Vacation Races organizes it, and late February typically delivers the cool, clear running weather the course is known for. Springdale fills up fast on race weekend, so guests who plan around it should book early.
