The Võhandu Marathon is a legendary 100 km non-stop kayak race in Estonia 🇪🇪 — one of the toughest endurance challenges in Europe.

Every year, up to 1,500 kayaks, canoes, rafts, and rowboats start, and there are more than 3,000 participants from at least 25 different countries.

In 2026, we took on the full distance and pushed to finish before sunset. No overnight paddling — just pure speed, endurance, and a race against time.

📍 Võhandu River, Estonia
📏 Distance: 100 km
