Run in the biggest Slovenian marathon

In Ljubljana, the last weekend in October has traditionally been booked for runners. The streets of the city will be full of runners in the 22nd Ljubljana Marathon. You still have time to register and run together with thousands of competitors, who claim that the atmosphere in Ljubljana is unbeatable.

Run in the biggest Slovenian marathon

The Ljubljana Marathon is the biggest running event in Slovenia. It gets bigger every year and the number of competitors is constantly growing. Last year more than 28,000 marathon enthusiasts took part in this traditional running event in green Slovenia. The route makes a circle around the city and doesn’t pass the same point twice. Along the route, many supporters and fans cheer for the runners and prepare special surprises for them.

The full marathon (42 km) and the half marathon (21 km) are accompanied by recreational runs of varying lengths and degrees of difficulty, a half-marathon inline skating race, and a half-marathon hand cycling race. The entire weekend between 28th and 29th October is in an active mood.

The Ljubljana Marathon was founded in 1996 and was initially meant for locals, though it soon grew into an internationally recognized competition. Come and join runners from all over the world!
