The first major upgrade is planned 2.5 km from the start, where the Green corridor of the port railway was just opened last year. The two-kilometer section offers a unique experience for both locals and visitors. Also, the separation from roadways makes running on the new section very enjoyable. 

 

Another bigger course change is planned on the left side of river Emajõgi, where the course will pass through the newly renovated city swimming pool and Lodjakoda. The swimming pool has become one of the landmarks of Tartu and is also a perfect addition to  the Tartu City Marathon course in the direction of Kvissentali. 

 

The main idea behind the Tartu City Marathon is to run through as many iconic places of Tartu as possible. "The new segments will definitely make the course more enjoyable for runners and also offer good opportunities for spectators to discover the new places in the city," adds Kelk.
