22nd Eilenriede Race Hannover

The Eilenriederennen Hannover (Eilenriederennen) is scheduled for 30 August 2026 and returns as the 22nd edition, offering three road distances: 5 km, 10 km and a half marathon (21.0975 km). The event is staged through the Eilenriede, Hannover’s large urban forest known as the city’s "green lung", and is presented as a summer running event that typically attracts recreational and competitive runners alike. The race is listed as part of the regional Sparkassen‑Laufpass series, highlighting its role within the local running calendar and best‑list eligibility for the 10 km and half marathon.

The organiser pages note the event is run in cooperation with the Stadtteilzentrum Lister Turm and direct entrants to RaceResult for registration and race administration. The official information describes adjustments to the finish area (drinks and melon at the finish channel and a finisher present at the beer garden) and refers participants to the event homepage for full details. Start times, detailed course maps and many operational specifics are not published on the event page and should be confirmed on the official site prior to race day.
