50% MARATON - 100% OMIŠ

If your adventure portfolio lacks a really unique running treat, save this autumn for a visit to Omiš. The minute you step foot in our small town surrounded by steep mountain cliffs, you'll understand why the Omiš Half Marathon is called the 'hidden gem' of the running season. Many of our first-time participants are indeed baffled by the fact that a flat marathon course of over 20 kilometres is set within such impressive mountains, virtually reaching all the way to the sea.

And the course is indeed located in one of the most amazing sceneries in this part of Europe - in the Cetina river canyon which you enter through a small road tunnel right from the old historical part of town, where the Omiš Half Marathon both starts and finishes. And behind the tunnel, kilometres of pure untouched nature await.

Event includes two races - the half marathon with the start and finish line in the old town of Omiš and a recreational 6 kilometre race, both within the Cetina river canyon, which has been a protected landscape ever since 1963.


Running through the canyon you'll pass some of the best rafting, kayaking, trekking, hiking and free-climbing locations in Croatia. The impressive scenery has attracted some well-known runners over the years, and the names of our previous winners are perhaps the best evidence of the race's quality - Alija Imamović (Olympic runner from Bosnia and Herzegovina), Marija Vrajić (Olympic runner) and Nikolina Šustić.

But don't let these impressive names intimidate you - the Omiš Half Marathon is an event for professional and recreational runners alike. The Omiš Half Marathon has, in a relatively short time, grown into quite a popular event, which is partly due to the quality of its attractive race course, but also to the fantastic atmosphere created around the race in our small town, which as a well-known adventure destination welcomes adrenaline and nature lovers with great enthusiasm.
