About
The Palisades Half Marathon and Trail Run are back for 2026! Both races will take place on Sunday, September 27th. Early Bird registration for the Palisades Half Marathon is now open. Join for a stunning 13.1 mile paved run over 1200 ft of elevation along the Palisades ridge. The newly updated USATF certified Half Marathon course is forthcoming! Registration for the Trail Run will open early this summer. While course length and route are still pending, this event promises an adventure touring the rocky cliffs of the Palisades with a shorter, mixed-terrain run. The Palisades Half and Trail Run will both take place in Fort Lee, NJ. Car parking will be available with information details forthcoming. Regular shuttle services between uptown Manhattan and Fort Lee, NJ will be ongoing before and throughout the event, with free bicycle parking and bag check on site as well. Registration for either race includes a free t-shirt and finish medal. All proceeds benefit the Palisades Parks Conservancy and the network of 29 state parks and historic sites that we serve, from the GW Bridge to the Catskill Mountains. VOLUNTEERS We are actively recruiting volunteers for race day. Our volunteer crews help the race run smoothly by supporting check-in, running water stations, and providing guidance along the course. If you wish to volunteer on race day, please reach out to race@palisadesparks.org. CANCELATION, REFUND & TRANSFER POLICY All registration fees for this race are put directly toward the Palisades Parks Conservancy nonprofit's work of protecting, preserving, and enhancing the Palisades Parks. At this time, we cannot offer refunds or deferrals. We understand that injuries, emergencies, and obligations can come up. If you cannot attend the race, you may reach out to race@palisadesparks.org to transfer your registration to another person who can run in your place. The event will go on rain or shine, in the event of extreme inclement weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances, the race will be canceled and all registration fees will be converted to donations to support the Palisades Parks preservation work. We appreciate your understanding and your contributions to our small organization!
