Recurring 5K races near Regensburg
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Schyren Lauf
The Schyren Lauf begins and ends at the Prielhof, located at Scheyern Abbey in Bavaria. The event utilizes the historic monastery grounds as the hub for a run through the Hallertau region's natural landscape. Taking place in October, it features a 10 km main race, a 5 km fitness run, a 5 km Nordic walking event, races for youth, and a short 300 m children’s race. ST Scheyern e.V. Laufbewerbe organizes the competition, which typically attracts around 900 participants across its various events.
The 10 km and 5 km courses traverse the rolling hills of the hop-growing region, passing through Scheyrer Forst and alongside several monastery ponds. The children’s and youth races are held on flatter terrain around the Prielhof, accommodating both families and adult runners. Participants range from the youngest Bambini runners to those competing in the 10 km race. Awards include age-group trophies, finisher medals for all ages, personalized bibs, timing services provided by Zeitgemaess GmbH, and refreshments at the finish line. A recent edition introduced district championship titles, adding a competitive element for younger participants while maintaining the local club atmosphere.
16. Labertal-Lauf
The Labertal-Lauf begins and ends at the Sportheim in Hirschling on Harter Straße in Geiselhöring, Lower Bavaria. Race listings indicate an early October date. This is a local road-running event organized by Laufverein Region Geiselhöring, offering flat 5 km and 10 km races for adults.
The 10 km race also serves as the Lower Bavarian Championships for road running, attracting championship competitors alongside public race participants. All races conclude at the same finish line. Registration remains open until race morning. The organizer confirmed the use of the established course.
41. Pegnitztallauf 2026
The Pegnitztallauf is an afternoon race day in Vorra, Germany, with all finishes at the Tennisanlage in 91247 Vorra. The main program offers runners a 5K for adults and youth, a 10K for adults, and a 5K Nordic walk for adults, with the races commencing at 3:00 PM.
The course is flat and uses a single-loop layout, so participants do not have to repeat laps. Children’s and youth races are also part of the day, making it more of a local club-style event than a narrow adult road race.
Rozběháme (i) Klenčí
Rozběháme (i) Klenčí is a running race held in Klenčí, part of the Běžec Chodska series. The main events are straightforward: five kilometers and ten kilometers, with age-category results for men and women.
The results indicate a predominantly local field from the Chodsko and west Bohemian running communities. Ondřej Teska of Černá řeka won the men’s race, Anna Paap of Pasečnice won the women’s race, and clubs including Mílaři Domažlice, Aktiv sport Horšovský Týn, SV Stříbro, Sokol Postřekov, Atletika Klatovy, and Rozběháme Plzeň are represented in the category placings.
Bělská pětka
Bělská pětka is a short road-running event in Bělá nad Radbuzou, a town in the Domažlice district of the Plzeňský kraj region of Czechia. The main distance is 5 km, with a shorter 3 km option, suitable for runners seeking a compact local race over a long endurance challenge.
The listing provides no detailed route map, elevation profile, or field size. However, the name clearly indicates the five-kilometre race as the main event. TJ Start Bělá is listed as the organizer via the website tjstartbela.cz, with the event scheduled for October.
Munich Airport Freisinger Straßenlauf
The Munich Airport Freisinger Straßenlauf circles Stoibermühlsee, north of Munich Airport, on a closed, asphalted course. This autumn road race in Freising, held in late October, has Munich Airport as its title sponsor. The first edition attracted nearly 300 participants, offering a local feel with competitive depth. Despite a start with heavy rain and wind, the sun appeared before the race, allowing runners to achieve personal bests on the sealed, controlled route.
The course turning points are managed by the Freising and Marzling volunteer fire brigades. Wasserwacht Freising provides race-day support including power, parking, and medical services. LC Freising handles the venue and timing. The finish area features moderation, music, an arch, prizes, and vouchers from local businesses. Post-race, participants receive alcohol-free Erdinger, refreshments from REWE Lerchenfeld, and coffee from Junkers Café. The event also supports a community cause, with the first edition including 27 registrations for the Bavarian Bone Marrow Donor Action.
Mountainman Nikolaus-Trail Pommelsbrunn
The Mountainman Nikolaus-Trail Pommelsbrunn is a trail running and hiking event held on Saint Nicholas Sunday, based at the football club in Pommelsbrunn, within the Hersbrucker Schweiz area of Nürnberger Land. It combines elements of a winter trail day with a family outing. Runners can select challenging routes, including the 44 km XL Nussknacker-Trail, which features approximately 1,582 metres of elevation gain and qualifies for the UTMB Index. Hikers and families have access to shorter route options. The 32 km L route, named the Krampus-Trail, reinforces the event's Saint Nicholas theme.
The routes traverse the Franconian hill country, incorporating local landmarks such as the 1000hmr.de path, the Hohlen Fels viewpoint overlooking the Happurger Stausee, and the Höhenglücksteig climbing and cave area in Hirschbachtal. The XL category is substantial, with over 250 finishers in a recent edition, suggesting a significant competitive field. However, the event's scope extends beyond competitive trail running. The Family Wichtel-Trail, a 5 km hike with around 130 metres of climbing, includes participants like Saint Nicholas, elves, alpacas, children, adults without children, and even dogs available for booking, offering a playful contrast to the longer mountain trails.
Nikolauslauf Regensburg
Nikolauslauf Regensburg is a Saint Nicholas-themed cross-country running event in Regensburg, typically held in early December. Organized by LG Telis Finanz Regensburg, it features short off-road races, including 1.66 km for children, and 5 km and 10 km cross-country options, rather than a single road race.
The event uses the Stadion am Oberen Wöhrd as its base, lending it a club-meet atmosphere rather than a large-scale spectacle. The shortest race, designated Lauf 1, spans 1.66 km and is for age groups M8/W8 through early teens. This means the field includes children, youth runners, local clubs, and families before the longer races commence.

About 5K races in Regensburg
Regensburg Training Notes
Regensburg hosts 20 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Regensburg gives runners easy loops from the old town to the Danube, Jahninsel, Wöhr, Donaupark, and Doppelter Dörnbergpark. Runners hit the 38 km Donaulände route when they want steady Z2 with only 51 m of gain. Running Club Regensburg meets Tuesday at 18:30 at Bismarckplatz, and the social run sits around 6:30 min/km. LLC Marathon Regensburg meets Thursdays and Mondays near Westbad/Infineon. Regensburg Marathon is the anchor event, with Firmenlauf Regensburg and Nikolauslauf Regensburg filling the calendar. Waldmeisterlauf Painten gives you cross-country over forest and meadow paths.
Regensburg is properly set up for bikes, with 3,559 routes and enough river riding for base miles. Locals roll the cycle path to Walhalla for 12 km or the Danube start to Matting for about 13 km when the legs want easy spin. RSC 1988 Regensburg runs Tuesday Classics and keeps the serious club scene sharp for RTFs, races, and crit legs. WKT300 - der Rennrad-Spendenmarathon and 19. Regensburger Welt-Kult-Tour are the big local markers. The climbs sit south, and Regensburg - Amberg packs 1,058 m while R-Kallmünz-Regen-R100 gives 1,138 m.
June and July are the best months, and the bike crowd shows it on the paths, the Tuesday Classics, and the longer gran fondo days. July is the warmest month, and Regensburg gets 1,670 sunshine hours per year, so locals start earlier when intervals or marathon blocks get spicy. The city centre still works in summer, but cobblestones mean you pay attention when the route cuts through the old town. January is the coolest month, and winter shifts runners toward steady social miles while cyclists choose shorter spins, club structure, and cyclocross legs when the road season goes quiet.
