Intro

Organized since 1991, the Lisbon Marathon is known for its relatively flat course and lively atmosphere. Numerous music and dance groups perform along the route, enthusiastically accompanying the runners to the finish line.

The course largely follows the coastline and runs on wide roads, with beautiful views of the Tagus River and the architectural highlights of the city. This makes the course uncluttered, but at the same time varied and inviting for a constant pace. Thanks to the mild autumn climate, with temperatures around 14-20°C, conditions are often ideal.

Those who find the full marathon distance too long can participate in the half marathon during the same weekend, making Lisbon a perfect destination for both beginners and advanced runners to discover the city athletically.

You will visit the Borges Chiado in Lisbon on your own. It is convenient to purchase a Lisbon pass, which gives you free access to public transportation and several museums. In addition, the pass allows you to get discounts at a number of stores and attractions. Some sights in Lisbon that are definitely worth visiting are: Torre Belém, Ponte 25 de Abril and Castelo São Jorge. What is also definitely recommended is to tour Lisbon with the old streetcar 2. Through narrow streets and turns, this streetcar will lead you through the different neighborhoods of Lisbon. There is a good chance you will hear Fado music in the background. This music genre originated in Lisbon and is often played live at terraces, bars and restaurants.
