Three race distances for all levels

The Ibiza Marathon 2025 offers three race options to accommodate all types of runners, from elite athletes to those seeking a unique and scenic running experience. Each race is designed to highlight the beauty of the island while delivering a truly unforgettable challenge. All events share the same spirit: running in Ibiza is much more than a race; it's a unique experience that combines sport, nature, and excitement.

Marathon (42K): A sunset finish on a breathtaking route

The flagship event, the 42K Ibiza Marathon, kicks off at 3:30 PM from Ibiza Town’s iconic harbor. The route spans four of the island’s five municipalities, taking runners through stunning coastal roads, rural landscapes, and historic urban areas.

One of the race’s biggest highlights is its sunset finish, allowing runners to cross the line in Santa Eulària des Riu as the sun sets over the Mediterranean. This IAAF-certified route ensures a precise and competitive race for both elite and amateur runners.

22K: The perfect mid-distance challenge

For those seeking a challenging race without the full 42K, the 22K event is the ideal option. Starting at 5:15 PM from Santa Gertrudis, this course winds through stunning natural landscapes and traditional Ibizan villages, offering a mix of speed and endurance.

This race allows runners to experience the spirit of the marathon while covering a more manageable distance, making it an excellent choice for intermediate runners or those looking for a fast and exciting course.

12K: A fun and scenic race for all

The 12K race is perfect for those who want to experience the Ibiza Marathon atmosphere without tackling a long-distance challenge. Starting at 5:15 PM from Santa Eulària Marina, this course blends a festive spirit with the excitement of competition, allowing participants to enjoy a picturesque and accessible run.

The route follows some of Ibiza’s most scenic coastal areas, ending at the same finish line as the marathon and 22K event. This ensures an unforgettable experience for both runners and spectators.

The event also includes a special race for children: the Santa Eulària Ibiza Kids Run CaixaBank. Designed to promote sports among young athletes in a safe and fun environment, this event encourages children to embrace running and enjoy the spirit of the marathon.

Open to children of all ages, this race fosters values such as effort, perseverance, and enjoyment, making it a key highlight of the marathon weekend.
