Beach Run – special 2026

Napfény beach hosts this barefoot run at the edge of Lake Balaton, with sand underfoot and water nearby. In its eighth edition, Beach Run – special focuses less on stopwatch drama and more on a summer dare, a race where beginners, families, 60+ runners, and the “take it easy” crowd all fit perfectly. The course runs through the knee-deep water of Balaton and on the sandy shore, so expect heavy legs, wet calves, and plenty of laughter. Everyone receives a finisher medal and a unique singlet, fitting after earning it barefoot, half runner and half beach kid, through a race that offers an "unmissable experience" without taking itself too seriously.
