A fantastic 42.2 km journey through Helsinki and a great way to experience Finlandâs capital on foot. The marathon route combines urban streets with Helsinkiâs characteristic waterfront scenery, green spaces, and views of the Baltic Sea.
The course offers plenty of variety, passing through different parts of the city and alternating between lively sections with spectators and quieter stretches where you can settle into your rhythm. The coastal sections were a particular highlight, with open views and the unmistakable Nordic atmosphere.
Running the 2026 Helsinki Marathon was both a sporting challenge and a memorable sightseeing tourâ42.195 kilometers powered entirely by your own legs. Crossing the finish line after exploring Helsinki this way made the experience particularly rewarding.
A great route for marathon runners who enjoy combining a city race with nature, ocean views, and Scandinavian scenery.
