Registration for the Darß Marathon 2026: nature experience for all runners!

An exciting running event is just around the corner! Online registration for the 21st Darß Marathon begins on December 6, 2025, and the event will attract sports enthusiasts to the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula on April 25 and 26, 2026. Chief organizer Yves Scharmberg and his team are already expecting high demand for the charity event, in which runners of all ages and abilities can take part.

The event not only promises top sporting performance, but also offers a real treat for the senses. The routes lead through the picturesque coastal forests, along the Baltic Sea beaches and through charming fishing villages. A particular highlight is the diversity of the formats on offer: marathon, half marathon, ten-kilometer run, five-kilometer run and even children's and youth races are part of the program. Walking routes are also offered for walk lovers.

A celebration of community and nature

What makes the Darß Marathon something very special is the strong sense of community that develops between the runners, helpers and spectators. Everyone is connected here and togetherness is very important. However, if you want to take part in this event, you should hurry up, as early registration is strongly recommended due to the traditionally high demand.

In times when climate change is increasingly coming to the fore, it is important to emphasize how such events can be made more sustainable. The organization of the Darß Marathon shows that the sport can be a good example of environmentally conscious action. According to the Federal Environment Ministry, sustainable major sporting events are not only possible, but also necessary to preserve our planet for future generations reports the ministry.

Climatic conditions

Of course, the climate of the region also plays a role in the marathon. Conditions include temperature, precipitation and wind, which can significantly affect the running experience. The Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula benefits from a mild climate, which is ideal for outdoor sporting activities informs Climatempo.

Whether you are an ambitious athlete or just want to enjoy the beautiful nature - the Darß Marathon 2026 offers something for everyone. Be there when the landscapes bloom and the running shoes are laced up from April 25th to 26th, 2026! Further information about registration can be found on the Ostsee-Zeitung website here.
