Recurring 10K races near Kassel

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

34. Ortsstraßenlauf
SAT OCT 3
The Ortsstrassenlauf in Wernberg-Koblitz is a road race held on a Friday evening, starting at the Grund- und Mittelschule in Unterkoblitz. TSV DETAG Wernberg e.V. is the organizer. The event includes a 500 m Bambini run for young children, student races, a 3.25 km hobby run, and a 10 km main race for adults and U20 runners. The course is a flat asphalt loop passing through all three parts of Wernberg-Koblitz, with participants completing laps based on their chosen distance. Most races begin and end in front of the school. The 10 km race starts 200 meters away and consists of three laps plus an additional section. The hobby run is timed but not part of the OVL-Cup and lacks age-group scoring, offering a less competitive option alongside the main program.
Herbstlauf Ovenhausen
SUN OCT 4
Herbstlauf Ovenhausen is an autumn road race in Höxter-Ovenhausen, North Rhine-Westphalia. Races typically start in the afternoon from Hauptstrasse 82. TuS Ovenhausen 1924 e.V. organizes the event, which offers distances from short children’s races up to 20.8 km. The schedule also includes 10 km, 4.5 km, 1 km, and 400 m runs, plus a 4.5 km walk. It is part of the Hochstift-Cup and attracts a few hundred participants, not a large city crowd. The race has taken place since 1978, giving it the feel of a long-standing local club event with a comprehensive family program, not just a single main distance. The youngest children compete in a 400 m race. Age groups U8 to U16 have 1000 m options. The 4.5 km and 10 km races are open to all, while the 20.8 km race is for U20 and older. The event also hosts the Höxter district forest running championships: club runners from the district are automatically entered into these championships for the 4.5 km race (U14/U16) and the 10 km race (U18 and older). Kilometer markers and aid stations are available on the course. Changing rooms, showers, parking, refreshments at the finish, certificates, and finisher medals for children are provided, typical of a smaller race.
MedeRun Medebach
SAT OCT 10
MedeRun Medebach is a running event held in Medebach, located in Germany's Sauerland region. It features races of approximately 5 km, 10 km, and a half marathon. This event combines local participation across various distances with a cross-country run, Nordic Walking, and shorter races for children and youth. Touristik-Gesellschaft Medebach mbH organizes the event, which is also part of the Waldeck-Frankenberg Running Cup. The courses are predominantly off-road, with roughly 95% on natural trails, passing through the Medebacher Bucht, a European Bird Protection Area. The 5 km and 10 km races offer options for company or team entries, with teams of at least three participants scored based on their average finishing time. The event centers around the market square and the race course, including afternoon stage programming, food and beverages, and award ceremonies following the races.
Bad Hersfelder Lollslauf
SUN OCT 11
The Bad Hersfelder Lollslauf brings runners to central Bad Hersfeld in early October, with starts near Linggplatz and the market square by the VR-Bank. It is a series of road races, not a single event: adults can select from 5 km, 10 km, or the half marathon, while children have a 500 m Bambini run and a 1.3 km student race. The schedule also offers 5 km and 10 km team races, alongside a 10 km Nordic Walking event. This variety suits club runners, families, school groups, walkers, and individuals attempting a short road race for the first time. The course follows a mostly flat 5 km loop through Bad Hersfeld, beginning at Linggplatz and proceeding along Konrad-Duden-Strasse when city construction necessitated a modification. The event attracts participants from throughout Germany and has seen over 3,000 competitors, with entry limits set for logistical reasons. Ski-Club Neuenstein manages the race, and its timing near the Lullusfest opening connects it to the town’s autumn schedule rather than appearing as an isolated sports occasion. One year featured the slogan “This time it runs differently,” a direct reference to the adjusted course and the organizers' practical approach to adapting the race.
24. Panoramalauf Niedenstein
SAT OCT 17
Panoramalauf Niedenstein is a Saturday-afternoon running event in Niedenstein, Germany, featuring adult races over 5K and 10K. The 5K begins in mid-afternoon, with the 10K following shortly after. Both races traverse a rolling course, distinct from a flat city circuit. All races conclude at Hessenturmstadion on Friedensstrasse, providing a single finish line for participants and observers. The event also offers children’s and youth races, making the day suitable for local families alongside adults selecting between the 5K and 10K distances.
Almetal-Marathon Paderborn
SUN OCT 18
The Almetal-Marathon Paderborn guides runners from Büren-Ringelstein through the Alme valley to Ahorn-Sportpark in Paderborn. This October road race features a full marathon, two half-marathon distances, a 4 x 10.5 km relay, and a 4 km mini-marathon. SV Rot-Weiß Alfen 1927 e.V. is the organizer, attracting a modest field of 300 to 500 participants, distinct from large city events. The full marathon follows a point-to-point course. The upper half marathon runs from Büren-Ringelstein to Wewelsburg, and the lower half marathon goes from Wewelsburg to Paderborn. Twelve sports clubs collaborate on the event, contributing to its regional club-race atmosphere over a commercial festival feel. Established in 2017, the marathon has Landrat Christoph Rüther as its patron and provides practical runner amenities including kilometer markers, personalized bibs, online certificates, race timing, and complimentary race photos.
34. Mündener Altstadtlauf
SAT OCT 31
The Mündener Altstadtlauf takes runners through Hann. Münden's old town at the end of October, offering 5 km and 10 km races alongside children's runs. This is the 34th edition of the event. The athletics association is measuring the course, ensuring results can be officially recorded for personal bests and records. The run attracts both recreational runners and competitive athletes, with 652 participants in a recent year. The route winds through the historic center of Hann. Münden, differing from a simple out-and-back course. The 5 km race includes a Stapelwertung for large running groups. The 10 km race features a three-person team category requiring at least one woman. The event is also a component of the Südniedersachsencup, providing an additional incentive for faster regional runners to compete, alongside local families, club runners, and children.
51. Winterlaufserie 2026/2027, 1. Wertungslauf
SUN NOV 1
The Winterlaufserie in Hamm is a winter road-running series, and this listing is for its first scoring race. The featured distance is 15 km, run away from the stadium rather than on a track, and the series is in its 51st edition. The results show a club-heavy field, especially from Westphalia, with LG Hamm joined by teams from Dortmund, Oelde, Münster, Bielefeld, Soest, and many smaller towns across the region. Clubs from beyond Westphalia also appear, including ASC Göttingen, LAZ Rhein-Sieg, and LG Ultralauf, so the race draws runners from beyond the immediate area.
Göttinger Crosslauf-Serie
SAT NOV 14
The Göttinger Crosslauf-Serie begins at Hainholzhof on Borheckstraße in Göttingen, establishing a distinct local foundation for the series, differing from a city-center road race. This late-autumn cross-country running event in Lower Saxony, organized by LG Göttingen, offers race distances of 10 km, 5 km, 1.8 km, and 0.9 km. The schedule accommodates both adults and younger participants, featuring a children’s and school-age race alongside the longer cross-country courses. Previous years saw the event held in November or early December. The event listings provide start lists, results, and photos, with online registration available via the organizer's site, presenting a well-organized club-run race day with practical details managed digitally.
FLVW Crossmeisterschaften
SAT NOV 14
The FLVW Crossmeisterschaften is a German cross country championship listed in the laufen.de Laufkalender. It is a championship race, not a standard road event, with runners competing off-road in a cross country format under the German athletics system. The available source provides little course detail beyond the cross country designation and its German location. Its Laufkalender entry is significant because events listed there either cooperate with laufen.de or are officially registered through the German Athletics Association and its state associations. These bodies have supported German running since 1963, setting rules, timing standards, and runner safety measures.
Airport Run Paderborn-Lippstadt
SUN NOV 15
The Airport Run Paderborn-Lippstadt begins on the runway at Paderborn/Lippstadt Airport in Büren, offering 5 km and 10 km races for the public. The initial 2.5 km proceed directly along the airport runway, a configuration the organizer notes as possibly unique in Germany. The finish line is at the airport terminal, maintaining the airport theme from start to finish. Company teams may register employees for both distances, adding a workplace competition element alongside club runners, casual runners, and participants in a shorter public race.

About 10K races in Kassel

Kassel Miles And Climbs

Kassel hosts 47 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run Kassel through parks, river edges, and the hard little ramps everyone calls the Kasseler Berge. Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe gives you Herkules legs without leaving town. Karlsaue keeps the easy Z2 days smooth near Südstadt and the Auestadion. Waldauer Wiesen works for flatter laps when intervals need less drama. LSG-Waldauer-Wiesen and Laufgemeinschaft Vellmar keep the club scene visible. Kassel Marathon is the big anchor event, with War das eine Stimmung energy when the streets fill up. Kasseler Frauenlauf, LSG-Waldauer-Wiesen-Lauf, REHAmed Herkules-Berglauf, Wehlheider Volkslauf, and Ahnepark-Lauf fill the calendar.

Locals ride out of Kassel for base miles, gravel forest tracks, and the legendary Kassler Berge. The Kassel Loop gives a proper gran fondo feel, and the route runs 330 km in six stages through forests, river valleys, and the Fulda Valley. One stage runs 21 km to Hessisch Lichtenau. The return leg covers 54 km back toward Kassel. Zweirad-Gemeinschaft Kassel owns the local race vibe. Wednesday evenings mean Rohloff-Cup time, and Herkules is where the climbing legs get checked.

April to September is the good block, when Kassel feels built for running, riding, crit legs, and long Z2 days. The Rohloff-Cup runs from April 8 to August 19, 2026, so summer has a proper midweek rhythm. Ahnataler Abendvolkslauf lands on May 22, Wehlheider Volkslauf lands on June 7, Heiligenröder Abendlauf lands on June 12, and Firmenlauf-Nordhessen lands on June 25. Winter changes the tone for both sports. The Winterlaufserie keeps runners honest on November 1 and December 6, 2026, while cyclists keep base miles tighter around the Fulda River and the parks.
