Overview

The Marmaris Medium Trail, a 49-kilometer trail race in Icmeler, Türkiye, offers 2200 meters of elevation gain and a cut-off tighter than 17% of 50k races. This results in a 15.9 minutes per kilometer pace limit over the 13-hour time allowance.

The course, which is 60% trail and 35% single track through Marmaris National Park, includes narrow paths, rocky and stony terrain, root and water crossings, and sudden ascents and descents. The 44.9 meters of climb per kilometer makes this a more challenging course than many 50k events.

With only one prior edition in 2026, this race is still establishing itself. Its field of 35 finishers was larger than 48% of 2660 peer 50k races, suggesting a solid turnout for a newer event. The next edition is set for April 24, 2027.
