Marathon de Winterthur 2026

Marathon de Winterthur takes place in late May in Winterthur, located in Switzerland's Canton of Zurich. The event offers a wide range of running distances for a city marathon: a full marathon, half marathon, 10 km, 5 km, 2.6 km, relay races, children's and junior races, and a 10 km walk. The primary races are run on roads, with the marathon being the most frequently chosen distance. Each race distance features a single-loop course, from the 2.6 km route to the full 42.195 km marathon. The courses combine Winterthur's streets with parkland areas surrounding the city, providing participants with both an urban running environment and views of the local scenery. The event accommodates families and competitive runners alike, offering youth races and shorter distances alongside the main marathon and half marathon challenges. Visitors can also explore Winterthur attractions like Technorama, Old Winterthur, the Oskar Reinhart Museum, and Bruderhaus nature park.
