Half Marathon races near Warsaw

Warszawa Training Notes

Warsaw hosts 7 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run Łazienki Park, Pole Mokotowskie, Park Skaryszewski, Ogród Saski, Park Moczydło, and the Vistula River promenade when they want steady base miles without fuss. Łazienki Park has a 5-mile perimeter and a special track for races. 0 km. Anchor races include Nationale Nederlanden Maraton Warszawski Warszawa, Warsaw Praski Night Half Marathon, and Bieg Niepodleglosci Warszawa.

Locals ride the Vistula Boulevards, the Vistula Trail, Skaryszewski Park, Bielany, Ursynów through Wilanów to Konstancin, Kampinos National Park, and the loop to Góra Kalwaria along the Vistula. Cycling clubs stay off this brief, so the scene here reads more like route knowledge, Veturilo rides, and weekend groups forming from habit. The Vistula Boulevards route runs about 8 km one way from Gdański Bridge to Siekierkowski Bridge, and the path is wide, flat, and perfectly maintained. Kampinos National Park gives you 30 km and up when you want varied terrain. The climbs sit west and east, where flat Warsaw starts giving you elevation change.

May and September are the best months, because locals can stack Z2, intervals, crit prep, gran fondo legs, and long runs without fighting the season. Summer brings warm, fairly sunny days, frequent storms, and July as the wettest month, while Krakowskie Przedmieście closes to cars on weekends between April and October. The Vistula River feels best then, because the free ferry runs in summer and the boulevards stay useful after dark. Winter turns cold, sometimes snowy, and cloudy, so runners lean on parks and bridges, while riders keep base miles flatter or point toward cyclocross mood in Kampinos.
