Volkswagen Ljubljana Marathon

Date: 18 October, 2026
Distance:
The Volkswagen Ljubljana Marathon is a well-known fast and flat route which runs along the picturesque city and takes in the sights of Ljubljana, such as the NebotiÃÂnik (Slovenian Skyscraper), Prešernov Square with it’s Franciscan Church, Tromostovje (Triple bridges) and more. The Slovenian capital of Ljubljana echoes so many different themes, with chocolate box medieval streets, grand charming townhouses, remarkable churches and some of the finest art nouveau.
The spectacular international influences abound in the architecture and are reflected in the remarkable local cuisine. This charming city, on the banks of the willow-strewn Ljubljanica River, is a clean, green oasis whose large student population gives it a buzz and spirit few other cities can match.
The Ljubljana Marathon was founded in 1996. It attracts massive numbers of runners to the streets of Ljubljana in late October each year and it continues to grow in popularity.
