The Kaunas Marathon 2023 is an international running event in Kaunas. The marathon in Lithuania’s “temporary capital” is not just about running – it’s a sports festival for the whole city.

“Start your season by running the best Kaunas Marathon 2023 (or Half Marathon distance) in the historical but yet undiscovered second city of Lithuania, Kaunas. Start in the city hall square, dating from the 16th century, run by the remains of Kaunas castle, built in the 14th century, and enjoy the flat route beside the confluence of the two biggest rivers in Lithuania, the Nemunas and the Neris. Nearby lies the Kaunas Reservoir, the largest body of water in Lithuania,” – says Andrius Vaškevičius, Sports Manager.

But most of the 5000 participants take part in the 5 km and 10 km races (include in program of the Kaunas Marathon). Those also pass through the historic old town with its century-old brick-paved streets and through Confluence Park, where the Nemunas and Neris rivers meet.
