The Serengeti Safari Marathon was born from the desire to blend the worlds of sports and nature conservation. The idea came to life when a group of passionate runners, conservationists, and travel enthusiasts imagined a marathon that would allow athletes from all over the world to experience the thrill of running through Africa’s most spectacular wildlife sanctuary, Serengeti National Park.

Our Mission:
Active Responsible Sports Tourism, Sustainable Conservation, and Community Development.

At its core, the Serengeti Safari Marathon is about making a difference. We are not just organizing a race—we are building a platform to support conservation and community development efforts in one of the world’s most ecologically significant regions. A portion of the proceeds from the marathon goes directly to local conservation initiatives, supporting wildlife protection programs, anti-poaching efforts, and sustainable tourism projects in the Serengeti.

By participating in the marathon, runners become champions of conservation. Every kilometer covered helps raise funds to ensure that the Serengeti’s unique biodiversity—from the “Big Five” to the lesser-known species—continues to thrive. It’s a race where athletes aren’t just competing for medals but for the future of the land we run across.
