 The
Jungfrau Marathon, this event has been rated as the most beautiful
race course in the world. Last year 6000 runners applied for
a place on the starting line, due to the need to restrict
participation, lots are drawn for first time participants.
The event has once more raised the amount of participants
from 3200 to 3500!
The course is an extremely challenging race suitable only
for highly trained endurance athletes. The nature of the course
can be seen by the altitude difference from start to finish.
