Black Mountain Sunset Splash Run Hua Hin 2026

Black Mountain Sunset Splash Run 2026 brings an unusual family-oriented running afternoon to Black Mountain Water Park in Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan, on Saturday 14 November 2026. Instead of a conventional early-morning road race, participants run one of two short courses in the late afternoon before joining the evening water-park entertainment. The programme was announced by Black Mountain Water Park together with local tourism, community and event partners on 17 September 2026.

Two precise distances

The organiser offers 5.25 km (Standard Splash) and 2.35 km (family-friendly splash course). These are the actual advertised distances, not standard 5K and 2K races; the calendar's broader 5K/2K classification is only an approximate search grouping.

Both routes are designed around recreational participation and families. Their exact mapped routes, gradient, traffic arrangements and any official cut-offs have not been independently published, so participants should follow the final organiser briefing rather than assume a certified road course or a competitive chip-timed event.

Saturday 14 November schedule (Thailand time)

• 12:00–16:00: Participant registration/check-in and race-shirt and bib collection at the venue.
• 16:30: Opening ceremony.
• 16:45: Family warm-up.
• 17:00: 5.25 km start.

The event's main attraction is the combination of running, a sunset setting and leisure time at the water park. The organising announcement lists a running shirt, event bib, medal, food coupon and all-day water-park access as part of the Standard Splash package. Water-park entry arrangements and access to particular attractions should be checked with the organiser, especially when arriving close to the afternoon start or attending with younger children.

Entry packages and planning

The announced Standard Splash adult fee is THB 750, while children aged 12 or younger have a discounted THB 550 entry option. The organiser also advertised a THB 1,799 Happy Family package for two adults and one child, including three race kits and a framed family photo. Non-running Chill & Cheer attendance was advertised at THB 450; that is an audience package, not a race category. Separate group and accommodation-inclusive packages were also mentioned. Current allocations, prices and availability must be confirmed directly with the event organiser; these were advertised at the September launch, not a verified live checkout.

Allow time to reach the water park in Hin Lek Fai, inland from central Hua Hin. This is a different venue from Hua Hin beachfront races. Collect your bib and shirt before the 16:00 check-in cutoff, and arrange suitable clothing for both running and water-park activities. The park's ordinary public opening hours may differ from this special event's advertised evening programme.
