It is part of the third edition of the Neckarlauf series, a multi-day run tracing the Neckar from its source toward its lower reaches.

The route is flat and fast, featuring runnable sections where maintaining a consistent pace is more important than climbing ability.

For this concluding stage, runners finish in Sandhofen, offering tram access to Mannheim and parking near the hall for participant vehicles.
