Run Vienna. Run the Marathon Star. Plan your race and get all the details about the VCM course here.
The Vienna City Marathon leads to the most impressive modern and historical sights of Vienna. It starts on Wagramer Straße in modern Vienna, close to the "UNO-City", the seat of the United Nations, and finishes in the city centre in front of the Burgtheater.
Immediately after the start, the participants cross the Danube on the 864-meter Reichsbrücke bridge towards the historic city center. The run leads past the Ferris wheel into the completely flat and straight main avenue and through the large, green park area of the Prater. This is exactly where running star Eliud Kipchoge 2019 ran in 1:59:40.2 hours as the first person to run a marathon under two hours. A quarter of the VCM course is on Kipchoge's 1:59 course.
The race continues along the Danube Canal to the Vienna Ringstrasse, past the famous opera, the Secession and the Naschmarkt, through the Wiental Valley to Schönbrunn Palace, Austria's most visited tourist attraction. The participants walk through Vienna's most famous shopping street, the Mariahilfer Straße. Many of Vienna's most impressive buildings such as the Votivkirche, the many museums, the University of Vienna and the Parliament are located directly along the route. The splendid boulevard Ringstraße becomes the home stretch for one of the most impressive cultural marathon routes in the world. Participants in all competitions will reach the finish line directly in front of the Burgtheater with a view of the city hall.
The finishing line in front of the Burgtheater is also the heart of all running events on Saturday. The VCM Kids Race and the Coca-Cola Inclusion Run take place entirely on the Ringstrasse. Vienna 10K and Vienna 5K start near the Expo "Vienna Sports World" and lead through the Prater and Landstraßer Hauptstraße towards the finish.

The VCM route is also available in detail on the digital city map of www.wien.gv.at.
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”.
