More details

Getting to the finish

Lapangan Mandurorejo, Kajen (same as start)

Same venue as start.

Transit card

Pekalongan is a mid-size Javanese city with no dedicated IC transit card system like Jakarta's; local transport relies on angkot minivans, becak, and ojek (motorbike taxi) or ride-hailing apps (Gojek/Grab), all paid in cash or via the app. Most foreign visitors will use Gojek/Grab for race-day logistics rather than public transit.

READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

Kajen has no train station, so travel by car from Pekalongan Station on Java's north-coast line (about 30km) or use Kajen's intercity bus terminal.

With the tropical climate, plan your hydration even for a dawn start.

Entries are taken on the lawana.id platform, and the deadline is early — about 2 weeks before race day.

Times are local to Pekalongan. Check the latest official information before the race.
