Marathon on the Rocks has changed its name to Viking Island Marathon.
Being born as a Covid-19 pop-up event our race in Bornholm, Denmark has proven to be a real Albatros Adventure Marathons classic with a beautiful and demanding course and lots to see and do before and after the race.
The Viking Island Marathon is a splendid but challenging coastal trail run on the northern part of Bornholm.
The race features both a marathon and a half marathon and the beautiful route follows the coastline through dense forest and picturesque villages with half-timbered houses, past menhirs, and the largest castle ruin in Northern Europe
Just how unique this race is, is undoubtedly best described by our runners who gave comments like this: “The most beautiful course I ever ran” – “Harder than the Great Wall Marathon”
Join this amazing event in the “Pearl of the Baltic Sea” on 20 May 2023.
