Bergen City Marathon

The Fjordkraft Bergen City Marathon offers a challenging, yet scenic course through the heart of Bergen, Norway. Runners start and finish at Bryggen, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, passing through Old Bergen, Fjellveien’s hillside paths, and the waterfront trails of Store Lungegårdsvann. The course is designed for both speed and scenery, combining urban landmarks with steep climbs and sweeping fjord views. The marathon weekend features multiple race distances, from a full marathon to a relay and a kids run. With around 15K runners, the event has grown into one of Norway’s largest marathons, drawing competitive athletes and dedicated amateurs alike. The course’s elevation and technical demands make it a true test of endurance, while the crowds at Nygårdsparken and the historic streets of Nordnes create an energizing race atmosphere."
