Samarathon is a desert singles marathon celebrating its fifth year in 2019. It is one of the most unique and beautiful stages in the world. In the middle of February, when winter is at its peak, cyclists from all over the world enjoy perfect weather and a unique balance between a relaxed desert atmosphere and tough riding on ancient singles and trails forged by camel caravans and adapted to cyclists by the talented builders of Kibbutz Samar and Regev Infrastructures and Development.
The Marathon is a professional four-stage cycling competition that draws the best riders in Israel every year. This year there are 350 riders participating in the race, including 30 riders from abroad.
