Amba Paro

For a few remarkable days each year, the world gathers in Paro.

Not simply to run, but to experience Bhutan at its most authentic.

From the shadow of Tiger’s Nest to the ancient grandeur of Paro Dzong, the Thunder Dragon Marathon weaves through a landscape where every trail, monastery and mountain carries a story of its own.

More than a race, it is a celebration of culture, endurance and discovery.

Brought to life through the partnership of 2:09 Events, Blue Poppy Tours & Treks and Amba Paro, this extraordinary journey continues to welcome runners from around the world to the heart of Bhutan.

Here’s to the runners who came seeking a challenge and left with something far greater.

Some desserts don’t just end a meal, they become the highlight of it.

Our classic strawberry cheesecake rendition is exactly that.

Flames. Heat. Flavor.
