Frozen Lake Marathon 2027

The Frozen Lake Marathon takes place on the frozen surface of Tisleifjorden, a lake in Gol Municipality, Buskerud, Norway. This cold-weather race offers two distances: a 42-kilometer marathon and a 21-kilometer half marathon. Recent editions have been held in March. The race's core concept is straightforward and distinctive: rather than following roads, participants run directly on the ice. Organizers embrace the winter setting, encouraging runners to "find your inner Elsa." Past descriptions highlight the festive nature of using the frozen landscape as a race course. Event results indicate it attracts both competitive marathoners and those seeking a demanding challenge in a northern climate.
