After the start in the plaza, participants shall enter the trails by crossing the bridge of Chico River and a short cruise through the rice fields in Samoki Village.  This leads to a single-track trails in a pine forest which has about 600m gain for 6 kilometers continuous ascent until they reach the cultural village of Alab Oriente.  The runners will then head to a rolling trails passing through mountain ranges and forest trails until they reach Kaman Utek (a soil formation that turns to white, blue or gold depending on the sun setting) where they run through the loop leading them back to Alab Oriente.  They then tackle the other side of the mountain where they ascended at the start, giving them a continuing 6k downhill run until they reach the halfway point and enter the town again.  The midway point will be at the Municipal Plaza. 

From the halfway point, runners will ascend to Mount Fato - a beginner touristy trail which is known for the sea of clouds. This leads them to Mount Kupapey until they reach the Maligcong Rice Terraces.  They run through the grandious paved and solid path along the rice terraces until they reach the top which shall lead them to a tribal village.  The runners will then traverse through wide fire roads until they descend leading them to Liknon Falls. 

The athletes conclude their round through a runnable single track downhills that leads them to the starting venue.
