Switzerland 2026
Switzerland packs more elevation per kilometre than any other endurance destination. Jungfrau Marathon, Zermatt Marathon and Sierre-Zinal define alpine running — every race finishes higher than it starts. Cyclists chase the Tour de Suisse legacy climbs (Furka, Susten, Klausen, Grimsel, Gotthard) and the Maratona dles Dolomites is within reach across the Italian border. Trilingual race calendars (German, French, Italian) mean each region has its own scene, but mountains, lakes and immaculate roads are constant. Year-round training is possible across altitude bands from 200m to 2,500m.
