EDP Porto Marathon
8 November 2026 · Porto, Portugal
scenic
The Porto Marathon connects the river and the ocean: from the Ribeira waterfront across the Dom Luís I Bridge into Vila Nova de Gaia, past the port wine cellars, and onward along the coast toward Matosinhos. There are suspiciously many finish arches here — runners' reviews complain about "false finishes" that confuse the final stretch. Afterward, though: pancakes, pears, peach nectar, and beer by the water, plus the nearby Lello bookstore, one of the most beautiful in the world.

Reviews
Jessie Benson (The Right Fits)2022
Way too many finish arches — the false finishes were confusing. But this was my 40th marathon, and Porto turned out beautiful, especially the Lello bookstore.
Kylie Coleman (комментарий к отзыву)2022
I completely agree about the false finishes — way too many arches. The course is mostly flat, out-and-back under the bridges, with a few cobblestone sections.
