Neusiedlersee Marathon 2026

If you want a race that smells like nature and wide open spaces, the Neusiedlersee Marathon in Illmitz is just your style 🌿.

Here, you run at the pace of the Lake Neusiedl, with open horizons, dancing reeds, and light that makes you feel like you're moving on a postcard 🌊.

You choose your adventure: half-marathon for an enjoyable and efficient run, or marathon for the ultimate thrill—and prove to yourself that you have more wings than you think! 🪽

The area has a little something extra: it’s in Burgenland, a gentle and exotic region, with that "active holidays" vibe where you can come solo, as a couple, or in a group. ☀️

And after the finish line, I’ve saved the best for last: take a tour of the Neusiedler See–Seewinkel National Park, greet the birds around the Seewinkel ponds, head to Podersdorf am See for some fresh air, or treat yourself to a moment in Rust, the charming town by the water 🍷.

In short, at Illmitz you don't just come to run: you come to run and remember, and that is the most beautiful medal of all 🏅.
