This is what makes the Wolfgangsee Run so appealing: Passages directly between water and rock convey a very special natural running feeling.

Event information

The Wolfgangsee Run on October 18, 2026, Austria's largest landscape and adventure run with more than 4,000 participants, offers plenty of running fun.

On October 18, 2026 , there are four main competitions for everyone to choose their ideal distance (5.2 / 10 / 27 / 42.195 km). The natural course, which runs directly along the lake for the most part, offers everything that adventure, pleasure and competitive runners appreciate.

54th International Wolfgangsee Run "Around the Wolfgangsee"

The 5.2 km panoramic run (start in Strobl) is the perfect entry-level competition.

The flat 10 km shore run between Gschwendt and St. Wolfgang is also on the program.
Travel to both races is by boat (included in the entry fee).

The classic on Lake Wolfgang is and remains the 27 km long lake circuit - which will be run for the 53rd time. With the passage over the Falkenstein (220 meters in altitude) and countless, scenically unique sections, such as in Fürberg and Abersee, the myth of the Wolfgangsee Run emerged from the initial insider tip.

Since 2011, the running offer has been rounded off with the Salzkammergut Marathon over the classic 42.195 km distance. After the start in the imperial city of Bad Ischl and a good 15 km "run-up", the original 27 km classic loop around Lake Wolfgangsee follows. The participants were unanimous after the first two editions (both on gloriously beautiful fall days): "42.195 crisp kilometers - a top-class landscape and pleasure marathon with huge potential."

Overture to the power of 3 on Saturday

  • The sporting "overture" will take place on Saturday, October 17, 2026 with two competitions. The "5th Walk the Lake", which starts and finishes at the "Brunnwind" restaurant in St. Gilgen at 9.00 am, is completely geared towards the general public and is open to walkers and Nordic walkers alike.Due to the very good response last year, there are four distances to choose from this year: 8.5 km (St. Gilgen - St. Wolfgang municipal office); 14 km (St. Gilgen - TVB Strobl); 18.5 km (St. Gilgen - Gschwendt boat station); 27 km (St. Gilgen - St. Gilgen).
  • In the afternoon, the youngsters born in 2011 and younger (200-1,200 m depending on age group) will be in action at the 16th Junior Marathon on the picturesque lakeside promenade in Strobl.
  • Last but not least, in the evening from 18.00-20.30 in the Pacher-Haus St. Wolfgang "Griaß Eich" with live music, awards, information and a big photo show including a pasta party.
