Perfectly organized marathon with excellent quality gadgets and t-shirts

The lakeside path is so beautiful and picturesque that at times you felt like stopping to take a picture. Great idea to include the half marathon on the second lap so it pushes you to go faster in the most difficult part of the marathon.

Great half marathon, organization is so good, the people was so happy and they cheered all over the route, I saw a deer and of course cows. It was great experience the finish line is prefect, red carpet is amazing. The rout it self has 3 hills before 10km, but after it is very good.

Absolutely amazing, such a well organised event from start to finish. The set up was just incredible, never saw one queue for the portaloos even though 11k running, plenty of food and drink stations. Amazing scenic route, great crowd and great entertainment along the route (the music stations) absolutely loved it!

Tolle Route, perfekt organisiert (5 Sterne!) Viel besser geht es nicht mehr! Meine Top3 (Lauf-Events/Veranstaltungen) nebst New York & Palma de Mallorca.

2 interessante Laufrunden (Route: 2 x 21,1 KM) mit Schweizer Landschaftspanorama und einigen wenigen Wellen (Höhenmeter ca. 390) !
