Join Helsinki Marathon
The Helsinki Marathon is an annual road race held at the end of summer in the capital of Finland. All runners take on the 10 km loop with a large part of the course giving everyone a view of the gulf of Finland. This marathon in Helsinki has a great atmosphere aided by several cheering points on the course with music to lift your spirit and give that extra adrenaline kick. The city was established in the 16th century by the king of Sweden. Despite being founded by the Swedes, the home of the Helsinki Marathon carries a lot of similarities with St. Petersburg, especially the wide streets and neoclassical mansions. A city tour during your weekend trip to Helsinki will not disappoint you.
Helsinki Marathon is one of the biggest running events in Finland, and it will be run again on 20 August 2022 in Helsinki downtown.
All the runners from beginners to professionals are more than welcome to join the Helsinki Marathon.
