14. Fjordkraft Bergen City Marathon
Description
The Fjordkraft Bergen City Marathon 2026 will take place on April 25, 2026, in the picturesque city of Bergen, Norway – an event that excites runners of all skill levels. The event, which started over a decade ago and is now in its 15th edition, offers a unique combination of competition and city experience. The running route leads through the UNESCO World Heritage site Bryggen, through charming old town districts like Gamle Bergen, up to the stunning Fjellveien panoramic road, and along the water around Store Lungegårdsvann ([lopskalender.com](https://lopskalender.com/en/race-pages/fjordkraft_bergen_city_marathon/?utm_source=openai)).
In the previous year, 2025, the marathon attracted around 19,000 participants according to reports – a clear sign of the event's popularity in the international running scene ([lopskalender.com](https://lopskalender.com/en/race-pages/fjordkraft_bergen_city_marathon/?utm_source=openai)). Registration is done online on the official website. The participation fee depends on the registration time: those who book before May 15, 2025, pay 600 NOK for the marathon distance; after that, fees increase stepwise – from March 15 to April 25, the marathon costs 950 NOK, the half marathon 850 NOK, and the 5 km run 400 NOK ([bergencitymarathon.no](https://www.bergencitymarathon.no/en/signup-2022/?utm_source=openai)).
The organizers offer various distances: 2 km Kids Run, 5 km, the BMW Half Marathon (21 km), the Sport1 Marathon race (42.195 km), as well as relay races. Each route has its own elevation profile: the 5 km run overcomes about 50 m of elevation difference, the half marathon around 250 m, and the full marathon about 500 m – ideal for varied training and spectacular views of Bergen's sights ([races.runna.com](https://races.runna.com/events/fjordkraft-bergen-city-marathon-6f33?utm_source=openai)).
The history of the Bergen City Marathon dates back to the early 2010s; the number of participants steadily increased from about 1,700 in 2012 to over 11,600 in 2023. This continuous growth illustrates the increasing interest in this attractive city marathon ([bergencitymarathon.no](https://www.bergencitymarathon.no/en/welcome-2023/?utm_source=openai)). Although specific weather data for April 2025 is not yet available, typical transitional weather with mild temperatures can be expected due to the timing and geographical location – ideal for peak performances or enjoyable runs in the spring air.
Lottery spots or a drawing process are not currently planned. Detailed information on registration limits or procedures is also not provided – however, the spots do not seem to be limited, as the participant numbers in previous years indicate. The challenge on the course is noticeable with around 500 meters of elevation – for many, an exciting mix of urban backdrop and scenic demands. The event starts and ends at the historic Bryggen, ensuring a spectacular setting and excellent infrastructure.
