Siguldas kalnu maratons 2026 is a trail-running event in Sigulda, Latvia, scheduled for 26 September. The race is built around the steep terrain of the Gauja Valley and the trails of Gauja National Park, making it a very different experience from a standard road marathon. The event is best understood as a demanding autumn trail challenge rather than a flat city race. The 2026 edition is expected to include an approximately 70 km marathon distance with around 3000 metres of ascent and descent, a 35 km distance, and a shorter 10+ km mountain cross option. That range gives experienced trail runners a serious long-distance goal, while also leaving a more accessible way to experience the character of SKM without committing to the full ultra-style distance. This event suits runners who are comfortable with climbs, descents, uneven terrain and changing trail conditions. It is less suitable for runners looking for an easy personal-best course, but it is a strong option for participants who want a Latvian trail race with real terrain, a clear Sigulda identity and a demanding mountain-running feel.
