Kranichlauf Wanninchen 2026

Kranichlauf Wanninchen is a small autumn running event in Brandenburg, Germany, held at the Heinz Sielmann Nature Experience Centre in Wanninchen, Görlsdorf district near Crinitz and Luckau. Participants can select 5 km or 10 km races, with a shorter children’s and school race of approximately 2.5 km also offered. The races commence in the morning, and the modest entry fees position it as a local, community-focused event. The route follows the edge of Sielmann’s Wanninchen nature landscape, where former mining land has developed into dunes, woods, and lakeside habitat. The course is notably flat and provides open views across Schlabendorfer See, making it suitable for both casual runners and those aiming for a consistent pace. The event originated as a new race for the Dahme-Spreewald running circuit and is organized locally. The Luckauer Läuferbund is listed for the series, and the Luckauer Kornkäfer and Heinz Sielmann Foundation are associated with the nature-oriented editions.
