Wachau Marathon

Wachau Marathon is a signature road-running event held in the Wachau, Austria, offering runners a rare combination of speed, scenery, and established race tradition in one of the country’s most picturesque regions. Set in the UNESCO-listed Wachau valley, the event is built around a famously flat route that follows the Danube through wine villages and historic river landscapes before finishing in Krems. That profile has helped the race earn a reputation as both a beautiful destination race and a serious performance course for runners chasing quick times. Rather than being centered on a dense city loop, the WACHAUmarathon draws much of its appeal from the landscape itself, with the Danube, vineyards, and valley backdrop shaping the experience from start to finish. The broader race weekend includes multiple distances and a junior event, giving it the feel of a full regional running festival rather than a single marathon day.
