GlückLauf Salzgitter-Gebhardshagen 2026
Half marathon, 5 km run, and walking distances around the Gebhardshagen moated castle
About GlückLauf Gebhardshagen
A Mountain Stage in Southern Salzgitter
The GlückLauf stands out from many other fun runs due to its course: the hilly landscape around Gebhardshagen and the nearby moated castle provides elevation gain that challenges runners. Single-track sections through wooded areas complement the asphalted passages, making the run a technical challenge. Anyone who sets a personal best here can rightly be proud.
Distances for Every Performance Level
The organizer SV Glück Auf 1901 Gebhardshagen offers a tiered competition program in 2026:
- 5 km Shorty Run – Start 3:10 PM, ideal for beginners and children/youth
- 21 km Half Marathon – Start 3:40 PM, the premier discipline of the day
- 5.4 km / 10.8 km Run or Walk – Start 4:45 PM, broad popular sports category
Sports Field as Competition Center
The start and finish for all distances are at the SV Glück Auf sports field in Gebhardshagen. The club house offers the necessary infrastructure with changing rooms, showers, and catering. After the runs, the club restaurant invites you to a convivial get-together. The Gebhardshagen moated castle, an imposing medieval structure nearby, forms the characteristic backdrop for the event.
