Sparkassen Alb Marathon 2026
The 36th Sparkassen Alb Marathon will take place in Schwäbisch Gmünd on Saturday, October 24, 2026. Registration is open!
Since 1991, the ultramarathon has attracted hundreds of runners to Schwäbisch Gmünd every year in the golden October. Over 50 kilometers and 1100 meters of altitude, it goes up over the three Kaiser Mountains Hohenstaufen, Rechberg and Stuifen, through breathtaking landscape and unique nature. While some runners offer head-to-head races, others hand over the baton or take it easier on the 25-kilometer run or among the pleasure runners. A spectacle for the whole sports-loving family!
