The Paris Marathon is one of the largest and most iconic city marathons in the world, held annually in spring in the French capital. The course runs through Paris’ grand boulevards and along the banks of the Seine, passing world-famous landmarks such as the Louvre, Place de la Concorde, Notre-Dame Cathedral and the Eiffel Tower. The Banks of the Seine in Paris are inscribed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, providing the race with a unique historical and cultural setting. While the marathon is not centered on a single heritage monument, it is best described as a World Heritage City Marathon, where modern racing meets a UNESCO-listed cultural landscape. With excellent organization, a fast and flat course, and an unforgettable urban atmosphere, the Paris Marathon appeals to both performance-oriented runners and international participants seeking a cultural running experience in one of the world’s most historic cities.
