22. Torshavn Marathon

The Tórshavn Marathon, taking place on June 7, 2026, in the small, charming capital of the Faroe Islands, offers runners a fascinating panorama: city center, coastal strip, fjords, waterfalls, and a historic old town with grass-roofed houses. The route starts in the heart of Tórshavn, runs along the promenade, through quiet urban areas, and continues into the beautiful Kaldbaksfjørður – a section characterized by challenging ascents and descents as well as flat passages. Afterwards, it returns through the old town and narrow streets that impressively convey the local flair (course layout – Certified AIMS) ([globalracecalendar.com](https://globalracecalendar.com/event/torshavn-marathon/?utm_source=openai)). The event combines breathtaking nature with cultural authenticity and is both for ambitious marathoners and an example of how small towns can offer great running experiences.
