Brienz Lake Run 2026
Overview
Intro
A run along Lake Brienz covering 10–21 km, featuring mountain views, trails through forests, villages, and along the lakeshore, as well as refreshments.
On October 10 and 11, 2026, the Brienzerseelauf will captivate the region. On Saturday, the 10-kilometer evening run is on the schedule, attracting both serious runners and recreational runners. The course circles Bönigen once. Because of the late start, dusk will soon set in, making the run a special experience.
On Sunday, the remaining categories will take place, including the 21-kilometer half marathon starting in Brienz. Transportation to Brienz is by boat. Participants can look forward to a varied course that runs along the picturesque shores of Lake Brienz via Giessbach and Iseltwald to Bönigen, offering both a challenge and breathtaking views. Shorter distances are available for children and teenagers, ranging from 500 to 1,400 meters depending on age category. The Pfüderirennen, designed for the youngest children, covers 200 meters and is the highlight of the entire day. The race starts at 11:30 a.m. and shortly before the first finisher of the main race crosses the finish line.
In addition to the athletic competitions, visitors can enjoy a wide variety of culinary delights in the large festival tent. Spectators are cordially invited to cheer on the runners and enjoy the festive atmosphere.
Thanks to the Swiss Runners Ticket, participants can travel to the event for free via public transportation and return home safely afterward.
