The 2025 Chongli 168 Ultra Trail Race was held from June 11 to 13 in Chongli, northern China's Hebei Province. This year's event set a new record, with more than 11,117 runners participating from 25 countries and regions.

Runners from around the world tested their limits across forests, meadows and ski slopes, experiencing the all-season beauty of this "Winter Olympic City."

Since 2017, this former Winter Olympic town has evolved into one of Asia's premier trail running destinations. Now in its ninth year, Chongli is transitioning from snow to sun – racing toward becoming a four-season outdoor sports hub.
