Marathon Maga Circe

Nestled in the Lazio region of Italy, San Felice Circeo offers runners an unforgettable experience amidst the mystical and serene setting of Mount Circeo. This ancient land, where legends from Homer's Odyssey come to life, promises a journey through history as you lace up for the Maga Circe Marathon.
The race begins at the picturesque port of San Felice Circeo, marking your entry into an extraordinary adventure along the Tyrrhenian Sea. As you run, you’ll be surrounded by the wild beauty of the Circeo National Park, a vast protected area covering nearly 8,500 hectares. The course winds through the municipalities of Sabaudia, offering stunning views and challenging terrain that will test your endurance.
The Maga Circe Marathon is not just any race; it’s an international event recognized by World Athletics as part of their Global Calendar and listed on the Italian FIDAL calendar as a Bronze stage. But if you’re looking for something less daunting, there are other options available: a 29 km route perfect for those seeking a balance between challenge and enjoyment, or a shorter but equally thrilling 10 km race designed for speed enthusiasts.
Families can also join in the fun with the Family Walk, a leisurely stroll of 2.5 kilometers that allows everyone to enjoy the scenery at their own pace. Whether you’re an experienced runner or simply looking for a memorable day out, there’s something here for every participant.
Beyond the race itself lies a world of exploration and relaxation. After crossing the finish line with your medal in hand, take some time to explore San Felice Circeo and its surroundings. Hike up Mount Circeo for panoramic views that stretch across the sea and land, delve into history at the Grotta Guattari where Neanderthal remains were discovered, or unwind on the pristine beaches of Sabaudia.
Even if you’re not a fan of cold water, diving into the Tyrrhenian Sea can provide an unexpected form of cryotherapy to soothe your tired muscles. And when it’s time for celebration, indulge in local delicacies such as fresh seafood, stracciatella alla Romana, and perhaps a glass or two of wine or limoncello.
The Maga Circe Marathon invites you to step into the shoes of Ulysses and become part of an epic tale. Register now and be prepared for a race that’s more than just running—it’s a journey through myth and reality.
