    A special highlight for all runners is located between Weißenstein, Villach, and Wernberg. Along the Drau, a marathon route of exactly 21.1 kilometers is measured. Signs on the Drau marathon route indicate the distance run after each kilometer, whether running downstream or upstream. Part of the path is asphalted where inline skaters share the route with runners in the summer, and the rest is on compacted natural ground. The exact measurement allows even visitors to safely orient themselves, and ambitious runners can perform controlled pace training in kilometer intervals here.
