The Zarasai Half Marathon takes place in late August; the 2026 race was its sixth edition. The start is on Sėlių Square in central Zarasai, and the course loops around Lake Zarasas, so you run almost the whole way by the water with views of islands and hilly shores; distances range from 500 m and 1 km to 5, 10.5 and 21.1 km, and you can run or walk. Every finisher gets a unique medal, and the Maratomanija organisers create a warm, almost family atmosphere. Zarasai is called 'Lithuania's Switzerland' for its dozens of lakes and hills, with the striking 'eye' viewing platform on Didžioji Island, the Gražutė Regional Park and plenty of beaches nearby.
