Description

The Sparkasse 3-Country Marathon, first held in 2001, is one of the most scenic marathon races in Europe. On Sunday, October 11, 2026, the race will traditionally start at the picturesque Lindau harbor promenade and lead along Lake Constance with a spectacular Alpine panorama through three countries – Germany, Austria, and Switzerland – to the finish stadium in Bregenz. The total distance of 42.195 km is AIMS-measured and has a height difference of only about 17 meters (from 398 m to 415 m above sea level) – ideal for fast times and personal record attempts ([lindau.de](https://www.lindau.de/veranstaltungen/sparkasse-3-laender-marathon-2/?utm_source=openai)).

The route features numerous highlights: past the lake stage of the Bregenz Festival, through the Mehrerau Monastery, and with a stop in St. Margrethen in Switzerland, where spectators greet the runners with cowbells – goosebumps moments included ([lindau.de](https://www.lindau.de/veranstaltungen/sparkasse-3-laender-marathon-2/?utm_source=openai)). The event includes not only the classic marathon but also a half marathon, quarter marathon, relay marathon, and Nordic walking/visitor routes, making it attractive to a wide audience ([lindau.de](https://www.lindau.de/en/experience-lindau/events/sparkasse-3-lander-marathon/?utm_source=openai)).

Registration is done through the online portal. The regular registration deadline is September 25, 2026, followed by a final opportunity for on-site late registration from October 9 to 11, 2026 ([sparkasse-3-laender-marathon.at](https://www.sparkasse-3-laender-marathon.at/de/wettbewerbe/sparkasse-marathon/?utm_source=openai)). The entry fee is tiered; for example, the marathon price varies depending on the timing, approximately 80–103 EUR for early registrants or late registrants ([europe.run](https://europe.run/events/germany/bavaria/lindau-bodensee/sparkasse-3-laender-marathon/?utm_source=openai)).

A special figure is the expected number of participants: For the 2025 edition, more than 11,500 athletes were registered, which was announced as a new participant record ([de.wikipedia.org](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparkasse_3-L%C3%A4nder-Marathon?utm_source=openai)). We have therefore also adopted this number for 2026.
