Köln

Köln's running culture centres on the Rhine: the Rheinuferlauf and Cologne Marathon (September) are both flat, fast courses hugging the river through the city, with the cathedral and bridges as landmarks. Cyclists dominate the rolling terrain south and east — the Forsbach-Tour des RTC Köln and An die Mosel events tap into the Bergisches Land hills and Mosel valley routes, with 400–600m elevation gains over 150km+ rides common from here.
