Leave the pavement behind. Step into the wild.
The WAXE · 2025 China (Hainan) Tropical Rainforest Trail Running Challenge is now accepting entries. Held deep in the lush Exianling Rainforest of Hainan’s Dongfang City, this isn’t your typical trail run, it’s an all-out immersion into tropical wilderness, raw endurance, and unfiltered beauty.
Why This Race Is Worth It
The trail is alive.
The 51.8 km course isn’t just a path—it’s a full-sensory journey. Imagine jogging through tunnels of dew-laced vines at dawn, splashing through roaring streams at midday, and standing atop 800-meter peaks at sunset, watching clouds drift over ancient Li villages. This isn’t a backdrop, it’s a living, breathing co-star.
Your gear? Rainforest-tested.
Every registered runner gets a trail survival kit designed by outdoor brand WAXE (蛙壳). Think of it as your rainforest armor.
