3. Die Bergischen 5 Kindergartenrunde Etappe 3

Die Bergischen 5 Kindergartenrunde Etappe 3 is a 45 km trail and landscape run in Germany's Bergisches Land region, starting and finishing in Wermelskirchen. This is the third stage of Die Bergischen 5, a five-stage running series. Runners may enter this stage individually, without needing to commit to the entire multi-day event. The route is a single loop featuring 987 meters of elevation gain, classifying it as a hilly long-distance run rather than a flat road ultra. The time limit is set at 12 minutes per kilometer, allowing for a steady, completion-friendly pace. Past results indicate small fields, not a crowded mass race. Conibeta GmbH organizes the event, with Thomas Steinicke as the contact person.
