The Marburg Night Marathon is a summer highlight for runners, offering a unique evening race through the picturesque streets of Marburg and along the scenic Lahn River. Starting at 7:00 PM on the city’s historic marketplace, the event provides a magical atmosphere as runners head into the night under city lights and starry skies. Participants can choose from three race formats: the classic full marathon (42.2 km), a half marathon (21.1 km), or a relay marathon, where teams of up to four runners each complete a 10.5 km segment. The flat course follows a mix of city streets and bike paths, making it suitable for both seasoned marathoners and ambitious first-timers. With its combination of vibrant race atmosphere, historic setting, and night-time charm, the Marburg Night Marathon has grown to become the largest running event in the region.
