Jungfrau Marathon

It is not just words: World most beautiful marathon. Awesome landscape, perfect weather (2019), well organised!

Breathtaking. One couldn't help smiling from start to finish. Of course it did help that it was sunny and warm (2017 it was grey, raining and almost zero degrees Celcius at the top). May a bit too warm to run but hey ... most of the race after the 25K mark is just a hiking trip up the mountain. Be prepared that that is just the way it is for most average runners ;-) Switzerland isn't the cheapest location to visit and stay but this bucket list marathon is a must do. Very well organised. Relaxed atmospfere. Not so much to be influenced by the organisers: - Train ride down the mountain back to Interlaken took about 2 hours incl. waiting time on the platform (that already took 30 - 45 minutes and can take longer) - Take your own food with you or via your supporters up the mountain unless you want to spend EUR 30 and up per person for a quick lunch
