In most cases—especially for those staying in Divisadero—the meeting points are not within walking distance. We recommend coordinating with your hotel or accommodation host in advance to arrange transfers from the meeting points to your lodging. Make sure you bring cash in Mexican pesos for payment, as some accommodations may include this service while others may not.
Don’t worry! We know this may sound complicated, but it’s all part of the adventure in the remote Copper Canyons. Event staff will always be available to assist you or help coordinate with your accommodation if needed.
Support Crew
Support crew members, friends, and family can also use the transportation service for an additional cost.
The only official shuttle provided by the organization is to the start line at Copper Canyon Adventure Park in Divisadero.
The Akáa 59K race does not have any aid stations with permitted support; therefore, no official transportation will be provided by the organization to points along the course.
