Le Bortolin Marathon de Hesbaye 2026

The Le Bortolin Marathon de Hesbaye is a road race in Hannut, a French-speaking town in Wallonia’s Liège province. It takes place each August and features a full 42.195 km marathon, alongside a half marathon, 10 km, 5 km, and a children's run. This variety accommodates both experienced runners and those opting for a shorter distance. The marathon route largely stays within the Hannut municipality, incorporating several loops through seven villages. The covered market acts as the start and finish point, with runners passing it again near the halfway mark. The course guides participants past local sites such as the Battle of Hannut location and Château de Blehen. The organizers also manage the Marathon du Brabant Wallon, indicating this event is part of a small Belgian road-racing series.
