Merkur Grazathlon 2026

The Merkur Grazathlon 2026 is an urban obstacle race held in Graz as part of the beat the city series. The event, promoted on the official beatthecity site as "Merkur Grazathlon", offers 5+ km and 10+ km distance options that thread through central Graz and past well-known city sights. Participants face numerous man-made obstacles and city stair sections, creating a demanding, spectator-friendly atmosphere.

The Graz edition sits within a four-city series that includes Linz, Innsbruck and Vienna and contributes to a series ranking for athletes who enter all events. The event village is centred on Augarten (start/finish area) and the organiser publishes race information, route maps and obstacle descriptions on dedicated subpages. Practical details such as timing (via MaxFun transponders), registration procedures and junior races are provided on the official event pages and the MaxFun registration portal.
