Recurring 5K races near Neuss

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Wilhelminaberg Trappen Marathon

The Wilhelminaberg Trappen Marathon course for runners includes a 248-meter staircase with 508 steps. This race takes place in Landgraaf, South Limburg, situated on the 93-meter Wilhelminaberg, which is the highest slag heap in the Netherlands. It is a lap-based road and stair race, offering distances from 5 km up to a marathon, alongside a kids run and a Business Run for teams of up to five. Each standard lap is 1,090 meters. Consequently, the 5 km requires 5 laps, the 10 km is 10 laps, the 10 mile is 16 laps, the half marathon is 21 laps, and the marathon is 42 laps. The full marathon involves runners ascending the staircase 44 times, totaling 22,350 steps. This is why Dutch media refers to it as the toughest marathon in the Netherlands. The kids run features a scaled-down version of the central element: it begins at the base of the stairs and concludes at the summit.

21. Korschenbroicher Waldlauf

The Korschenbroich Forest Run takes place at Am Sportplatz in Korschenbroich. The event offers 5K and 10K races, providing standard distances for participants. The event includes options for children and students, catering to a range of age groups. Nordic Walking is also available, allowing participants to join the same race setting without competing as runners.

Kreis Waldlaufmeisterschaften Bochum

The Kreis Waldlaufmeisterschaften Bochum is a cross-country running event held in Bochum, North Rhine-Westphalia, beginning at Weitmarer Holz. Typically scheduled for October, it starts in the early afternoon around 13:15. The event features a range of race distances: 9.7 km, 4.8 km, 2.5 km, 1.6 km, and 1.3 km. The championship caters to local forest running, with shorter distances suitable for younger participants, club members, and adults seeking a cross-country race without a significant distance commitment. Registration is available via the organizer's website, which also hosts start lists, results, photos, and reports. Limited reviews suggest a modest event, with one participant rating the atmosphere above the course's appeal, indicating a local race-day feel might be prioritized over a spectacular route.

Pro Kids Lauf Emmerich

TV Sportfreunde Elten's run offers a chance for families to get active together. Children can run at Eugen-Reintjes-Stadion. The Pro Kids Lauf Emmerich has been a tradition since 2011.

79. Viersener Herbstwaldlauf Rund um den Bismarckturm

The Viersener Herbstwaldlauf Rund um den Bismarckturm is an autumn forest race in Viersen, Germany. All races start and finish at Stadion Hoher Busch. The program features a rolling 5k run, a 10k run, and a 7.25k walk or Nordic walk, catering to both runners and walkers. The 5k is open to adults aged 14 and older, with a one-hour time limit. The walking and Nordic walking event is open to participants aged 10 and older. Results are categorized by birth-year age groups, extending to older masters categories. The event also includes races for children and youth.

43. Styrumer Straßenlauf "Rund um die Neustadtstraße"

The Styrumer Straßenlauf “Rund um die Neustadtstraße” is a German road race centered on Neustadtstraße in Styrum. The event lists distances from 5 km to 100 km, with additional options of 7.5 km, 10 km, 15 km, 20 km, 25 km, a half marathon, and 50 km. It is listed in the laufen.de Laufkalender, allowing runners to find events by distance and select races on officially measured courses that contribute to German athletics best lists. Races in this calendar partner with laufen.de or are registered via the German Athletics Association system, which has overseen road running since 1963, providing rules, timing, and safety standards.

27. Crosslauf durch das Backumer Tal

Crosslauf durch das Backumer Tal is a running event in Herten-Disteln, with all races finishing at the Sportanlage on Fritz-Erler-Str. 2a in Herten. The program includes a 2.8k relay plus adult races over 4.7k and 6.6k, with separate races for children and youth. The adult courses are flat, so the 4.7k and 6.6k options suit runners who want a short cross-country-style race without a hilly profile. The mix of relay, adult, children’s, and youth races makes it more of a local club-style race day than a single-distance event.

Cité Run Eisden

Cité Run Eisden takes place in October in Eisden-Tuinwijk, starting at Vrije Basisschool de Griffel. The schedule includes a 5 km race in the morning, followed by a 10 km race an hour later. A Kidsrun is held after midday, with children signing up via their school. The course stays within Eisden-Tuinwijk, passing notable local sites. It accommodates individual runners and workplace teams of five or six, who can enter the 5 km or 10 km races as a group using special team packages. Parking is available at Kerkplein. Organisers will give a surprise to the 50th, 100th, and 200th registrants.

Winterlaufserie Marienfeld

Winterlaufserie Marienfeld is a winter running series held at the Marienfeld club house in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It takes place annually from late October to February, with runs on Saturdays or Sundays, functioning more like an organized winter training meet-up than a formal race. Participants can select from 3 km, 5 km, 7.5 km, 10 km, or 15 km distances, and walkers are welcome. Sportverein Schwarz-Weiss Marienfeld Laufbewerbe organizes the series. The start and finish lines are both located at the club house, with routes consisting of street runs through Marienfeld’s winter scenery. There is no timing system, emphasizing consistent training through the cold months over chasing official results. The series aims to provide local runners and walkers with motivation to continue training when the weather discourages outdoor activity. Registration is managed via the organizer’s website.

Styrumer Strassenlauf Rund um die NeustadtStrasse

The Styrumer Straßenlauf begins near Sportpark Styrum in Mülheim, taking place in late October. This event is Mülheim’s oldest running race, put on by Styrumer TV. The primary race is 5 km, with additional races for younger age groups. The name “Rund um die Neustadtstraße” reflects its neighborhood origins. The 5 km course winds through Sportpark Styrum. Children’s races include 1 km for U8 and U10 participants, and 2 km for U12, U14, and U16 participants. Styrumer Turnverein receives support for the event from Mülheimer SportService, reinforcing its connection to the city's local sports scene.

The Jasperloop begins at 10:00 on the last Sunday of most months, located beside Het Keelven in Someren, close to forest café De Soete Inval. This is a small Dutch trimloop, emphasizing personal fitness testing over formal championship competition. Registration opens at 9:30; non-members pay €1, and participation is limited to 100 runners. The event occurs 11 times annually, with no session in December. The structure allows participants to complete 1 to 6 laps of a 2.5 km course, offering distances from 2.5 km to 15 km. The semi-paved loop winds through the woods surrounding Het Keelven. The start is accessible from the provincial road connecting Someren, Asten, and Heeze. The event welcomes runners of all ages and experience levels, from novices to seasoned athletes, though some participants compete seriously against their own times and fellow runners. The series has progressed through hundreds of editions.

Wittener Abendlauf

The Wittener Abendlauf is an evening road race at Kemnader See in Bochum, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Participants can select either a 5 km or 10 km distance, with a walking option available for the 5 km course. The event's timing gives it its name: the 5 km run and walk begins at 19:00, and the 10 km race starts at 20:00. The start line is located by the Seglerheim at Kemnader See, connecting the race to the lake area on Bochum's southern edge rather than the city center. It is a compact local event, typically attracting between 301 and 500 participants, and the entry fees are modest: EUR 7 for 5 km and EUR 9 for 10 km. PV Triathlon TG Witten organizes the race, with TG Witten 1848 e.V. listed as a partner. Late entries are accepted on-site shortly before the start for an additional fee.

About 5K races in Neuss

Neuss Training Notes

Neuss hosts 119 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run Neuss in a simple rhythm: through the green, then straight through town. The route runs 3 km one way off Rheinallee. Stadtgarten sits just south of the Clemens Sels Museum when you want easy laps close to the city centre. Rennbahnpark and the Galopprennbahn Neuss sports complex add more trail time without making it complicated. Laufsport Bunert Neuss keeps the Mondscheinrun vibe alive, and DJK Novesia Lauftreff meets Tuesdays at 19:00 on the Erftlaufstrecke. The 8. Neusser Integrationslauf, Silvesterlauf Neuss, Firmenlauf Neuss, 42. Neusser Sommernachtslauf, and 53. Neusser Erftlauf give the calendar its anchor event feel.

Locals ride road and gravel here with Lemon Cycling Club, and the club keeps weekday rounds in that useful 40-60 km pocket. The 46km After-Work Halde Runde covers 46 km and climbs 230 m, so the Halde is the obvious place to look when you want some sting. The 52km After-Work Halde Runde goes 52 km and climbs 270 m, while the 60km Vollrather-Höhe Groupride goes 59 km with 280 m. The 85km Hügel Tour Mettmann-Baldene brings 580 m, and the Kölner Alpen route packs 950 m into 92 km. The Sunny Sunday Ride covers 105 km with 420 m, and the 44. Büttgener Herbst-RTF and Büttger Brevet sit nicely as bigger targets.

May, June, September, October, and March suit Neuss best, because base miles feel steady and intervals do not cook you. Summer gives runners Rheinpark mornings, Stadtgarten shade, and evening races like the 39. Rosellener Abendlauf or Düsseldorf Night Run. Sunday is forecast from 17°C to 27°C, so locals keep hard work early and leave Z2 for later if the legs are honest. Winter shifts both sports toward shorter loops, night runs, and practical group rides. The city centre still works, the Erftlaufstrecke still works, and Lemon Cycling Club still has the kind of after-work rounds that keep fitness ticking.
