Eremitageløbet 2026

If you’re looking for a race that blends city, nature and a little taste of castle, Eremitageløbet ticks all the boxes 🏰.

Here, you’re not just coming to “do 13.3 km”: you’re coming to experience Copenhagen with a huge breath of fresh air—between that cool Danish vibe and scenery that makes you want to speed up just to see what’s next 🍃.

The route takes you through the postcard side: wooded avenues, lush green corners, and that festive vibe where you feel carried by the crowd and the other participants. And yes, it’s the kind of event where you can tell yourself, “I’m running in a fairytale setting,” without stretching your imagination 🎉.

My local tip: arrive a bit early to settle in, get a feel for the atmosphere, and get into the right mood—here, people run seriously, but they don’t take themselves too seriously (Eremitage, exhausting? Not necessarily…) 😉.

After the finish line, stick around and keep the fun going: go wander around the Amalienborg Palace, pop by Nyhavn and its colorful facades, take a stroll through the Tivoli Gardens, or admire the city from the Little Mermaid side 🌊.

And if you’re coming as a couple or with family, follow it up with a calm walk along the water, a chocolate-and-cinnamon break on a terrace, or a mini city walk to relive the race… but this time with a snack in hand 🍂.
