Frozen Lake Marathon

About this event

The Frozen Lake Marathon takes place on the frozen surface of Tisleifjorden Lake, high in the Norwegian mountains at 819 meters above sea level. Runners race across 80 cm of solid ice, thick enough to support heavy vehicles, while surrounded by snow-covered peaks and Arctic wilderness. The event offers both marathon and half-marathon distances, drawing experienced runners looking for something different from the typical road race. The ice provides a firm, flat surface, though the altitude and cold conditions add their own challenges. It's a winter running experience that feels more like an expedition than a conventional race.
