Stavanger Marathon
The Stavanger Marathon is an annual running event held in the city center of Stavanger. The event takes place on the last Saturday of August and features courses that showcase the surrounding natural landscape. Runners navigate a route that passes by idyllic lakes and along scenic fjords. The course terrain consists of a combination of asphalt and gravel.
Participants can choose from several different distances:
- Marathon
- Half Marathon
- 5 km
- Children's race
The 5 km race starts on the bicycle path at Mariero station, which is easily accessible by train. For other distances, the main focus is around Stavanger Sentrum. Race numbers are distributed at the Radisson Blu Atlantic Hotel on the Friday before and the Saturday of the event. While moving to a shorter distance is permitted through the online portal, participants cannot upgrade to a longer distance. It is also possible to transfer a starting number to another person for the same distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
