The course starts at about 549 m and gives a little of that away first: the lowest point is 530 m, at km 5. From there it rises almost the whole way, 139 m in 27 km, to the highest point at km 32, 669 m. Over the whole marathon the climbing adds up to about 173 m.
Measured
After km 32 the road turns over and the road runs down for the rest of the race, from 669 m at km 32 to about 550 m at the finish. The start and finish are the same place on the Alameda, so the course ends at the height it began at. The way home goes along Avenida Andrés Bello, then Avenida Providencia and Plaza Baquedano, and on to the Alameda.
Measured
The organiser’s FAQ puts the start at the front of the Palacio de la Moneda, and the 2026 event rules start the marathon on the Alameda’s north carriageway and finish it at the palace, in the Plaza de la Ciudadanía.
Sourced
The 2026 event rules describe the marathon as a list of avenues, in order. From the start the course goes west along the Alameda, then Avenida España, Almirante Blanco Encalada, Beaucheff, Rondizzoni, Viel and Manuel Antonio Matta before it reaches Avenida Grecia and Campos de Deportes. It then runs Antonio Varas, Pocuro and Los Leones, and Artigas, Chile España, José Pedro Alessandri, Rodrigo de Araya and Monckeberg bring it back to Grecia and its roundabout. After Plaza Egaña on Américo Vespucio come Francisco de Aguirre, Luis Carrera, Escrivá de Balaguer, Nueva Costanera, Isabel Montt and Avenida Bicentenario, then Avenida Andrés Bello, Providencia, Plaza Baquedano and the Alameda again. The organiser gives 16 May 2027 as the race day.
