Rimi Riga Marathon

Location: Riga, Latvia

Date: 17 May, 2026

Distance:

The course lies in the very centre of Riga City and all runners can enjoy the magic of the largest city in the Baltic States. 

The Riga Marathon course allows all visitors to run on both sides of the Daugava River, the largest river in Latvia and with the help of three bridges - Vanšu, Akmens and Sal. Throughout the race, runners are able to see some of the most beautiful spots in Riga including the Art Nouveau district, the amazing panorama of Old Riga and PÄ�rdaugava. 

The Riga course is rather flat without significant hills or ascents; the only major challenge is crossing the bridges.
