Runners Village - Bir Billing Marathon 2021

Runners’ Village is an idea born out of our passion for running, given shape by the observations we’ve had over the years. To not miss, the joy of staying in the middle of nature in a village raised exclusively for fellow runners and their companions is an experience best lived, and not described. The Runners’ Village is a concept village built exclusively for the runners, something that has so far happened only in events like Olympics and Asian Games.

This year to give runners a memorable experience we have associated with few of the best campsites in Bir in the middle of Dhanari Forest. The Runners Village this year will have - Bamboo Cottages, Jungle Safari Tents, Swiss tents, Dome Tents to choose from. From Luxury to budget travellers, there's an alternative for all.
