Plan your race and get information about all the details of the VCM course. You will see it is one of the most culturally impressive marathon courses in the world.
The detailed map is also available on www.wien.at. The Vienna City Marathon takes you to Vienna's most impressive modern and historic sights. It starts between the skyscrapers of the UNO complex, the site of the United Nations. Straight after the start, participants cross the 864 metre long Imperial Bridge (Reichsbrücke) over the River Danube, accompanied by the world famous melody of the Danube Waltz by Johann Strauß. The race takes you past the Riesenrad or giant ferris wheel, through the green expanse of Prater Park. It then continues on Vienna's Ring Road, past the famous Opera House, through Vienna's River Valley to reach Schönbrunn Castle, the former imperial summer residence. On the way back runners can take in the greatest examples of Vienna's architecture along the Ring Road, from the numerous museums and the Town Hall and Vienna University. Finish for all races is at the "Universitätsring" directly in front of Vienna Burgtheater.
Marathon, half marathon and relay marathon start on Sunday at Wagramer Straße close to the "Reichsbrücke". Hevis Vienna 10K and #GETMOVIN YOUTH RACE start on Saturday at Prater Hauptallee close to the ferris wheel while SANLUCAR KIDS RACE gets underway at Parkring near Stadtpark.
The finish area of the Vienna City Marathon is located in the city centre on Ringstraße between Vienna Burgtheater and Rathausplatz, one of the most beautiful locations in Vienna.

The end of the time limit will be determined by a special car which is moving with a constant speed from the start to the finish area. Runners who will be overtaken by this car have to act according to public traffic regulations and have to run on side walks if necessary. In addition the passage of this car additionaly shows all volunteers the end of the event. From that point on all necessary works such as the deconstruction of food supply station etc. have to be started. Only a few minutes after the car has passed a certain location along the course, the roads will be opened for public traffic again.
Please note, that from that time on, the food supply stations will not be available anymore. We therefore have to empazise, that all runners who will schedule their finish time around (or after) the relevant time limits, will not have any possibility to take food or drinks from a supply station. We kindly ask for your understanding and suggest to wear e.g. drink belts in means of your own security.
The company which will be responsible for the time keeping for all events of Vienna City Marathon (Mika Timing) will try to take all runners into the official results who will reach the finish area in a moderate finish time after the time limit (plse. see final results of former events)
The maximum altitude is 44,2 metres, the maximum gradient 0,4 %. The highest point of the course is at 45,7 metres above “Vienna Zero” (River Danube level) and is located at km 18,6 (Mariahilferstrasse / Kohlenhofgasse). The lowest point is at km 33 on Prater Hauptallee shortly before the Lusthaus at 1,3 m above “Vienna Zero”.
