Tallinn Half Marathon

The Tallinn Half Marathon winds through Estonia's medieval fairy-tale capital. Runners navigate the UNESCO-protected Old Town with its perfectly preserved medieval walls, cobblestone streets, and Gothic spires creating a journey through living history. September's early autumn brings comfortable temperatures with hints of Baltic crispness as participants experience both ancient districts and modern Estonian design. The course offers surprising hills that showcase the city's varied terrain while providing continuous visual interest. Estonian spectators bring their characteristically reserved but genuine support, creating an atmosphere of quiet appreciation. This race captures Tallinn's distinctive character—historically magical yet digitally progressive—offering both athletic challenge and immersion into one of Europe's most overlooked and charming capitals.
