Lauf Rund um den Fühlinger See

The Rund um den Fühlinger See Run is a traditional road race in Cologne, taking place on September 20, 2026. The event offers a wide range of distances for runners of all ages: a half marathon, 10 km, 5 km, and a 1 km children’s run. The courses loop around the regatta course used for the 1998 World Rowing Championships and are measured by the DLV, allowing performances to qualify for rankings. The race is an ideal test ahead of the Generali Cologne Marathon and is known for its family-friendly atmosphere, attractive medals, and non-cash prizes for age-group participants.

Timing is provided by a disposable chip attached to the race number, included in the entry fee. Late entries are possible online up to 30 minutes before the start (adults: €5; children/youth: free). Race packets will be distributed on race day from 08:45 at the boathouse on Fühlinger See. Changing rooms and showers are available in the boathouse. Non-cash prizes are awarded to the first three in each age group, and attractive medals to the first three finishers in each race. Measured courses, DLV-measured courses, start times from 09:30, free parking, changing rooms and showers at the Fühlinger See boathouse, music and refreshments on site.
