Whether you are chasing a personal best or your first finish line, comparing dates early helps you secure a start slot and build your training block around the right peak.

Use the calendar below to browse marathons month by month. September 2026 is a busy month in our listings when several races cluster on weekends.

Many runners look for a flagship race in the capital. Bern often hosts the most iconic marathon in Switzerland, but smaller towns offer quieter starts and fast, flat profiles.
