Augsburger AOK-Winterlaufserie Südring

The Augsburg AOK Winter Running Series organized by TG Viktoria Augsburg consists of four races through the beautiful Western Forests Nature Park. The courses run through hilly terrain in the western forests of Augsburg and require good fitness and health. The event offers age-group rankings and an overall ranking with attractive prizes and trophies. The races take place on Saturdays and one Sunday in November and December and are a popular series for runners of all ages.

Race numbers are distributed in the start/finish area each time. Portable toilets are available at the Kathreinerstraße car park (races 1–3), and there is space to leave a change of clothes or luggage in a tent or pavilion (at your own risk). Finish refreshments include tea, water and a cake buffet at races 1–3; the fourth race also offers mulled wine and children’s punch. The overall awards ceremony takes place at the forest hut after the fourth race. Parking is available in Bergheim, on Kathreinerstraße and on surrounding streets, but not at the Bergheim sports clubhouse. Races take place in November, with distances ranging from approximately 2.8 km to 9.9 km. The meeting point is usually by the forest car park near Kathreinerstrasse and Brennhölzerweg in Augsburg-Bergheim. November weather can be cool and rainy.
