The 2025 Asia Cross Country Rally will start and end in Pattaya, stretching eight legs with stops in Prachinburi and Khao Yai.

In total, the route will stretch 3,247.72 kilometers with 1,308.88 km in timed sections.

The race was initially supposed to start in Pattaya and finish in Cambodia, but those plans were dropped amid military tensions at the Cambodian–Thai border. Consequently, the AXCR will be exclusively held in Thailand for the second year in a row.

“The organizer of Asia Cross Country Rally 2025 has issued a new route,” reads a statement from officials posted Monday. “The rally route has been changed, and it will no longer include the Cambodian sector.”

UPDATE (July 26): The race distance has been updated. It was previously 3,300 kilometers long with 1,350 km in Selective Sections.
