The 2026 WMRA Mountain Running World Cup moves to Beijing Changping, China, this weekend for one of the most spectacular stops of the season, with two races set beneath the Great Wall and across the mountain trails of the Yanshan range. Following the season opener in Portugal, the circuit now heads to Asia for the second and third races of the campaign, where the World’s top mountain running athletes will face two incredibly unique race courses on the 25 and 26 April.

After an unforgettable 2025 season — taking the World Cup across three continents, through eight different countries and over fifteen exhilarating races — preparations are already underway for the next global mountain-running adventure. Registration for races wishing to be part of the 2026 WMRA Mountain Running World Cup is now open and will remain available until 21 November.
