Runners start the out-and-back course for the half marathon at the trail entrance in the parking lot next to the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway train station on Susquehanna Street. From there, the course heads onto the Lehigh Gorge Trail, which runs alongside the Lehigh River, for the next 6 1/2 miles until runners reach the half-way turnaround point. Then they’ll head back to the train station for the race finish.
