The 40. Refrather Herbstlauf is a long‑running autumn race held in the Königsforst and organised by the TV Refrath running team. The event keeps its traditional start and finish at the Schutzhütte 'Am dicken Stock' in Refrath, Bergisch Gladbach, and offers measured 5 km and 10 km point‑to‑point/turnpoint courses suitable for both club athletes and recreational runners. The 2026 edition is billed as the 40th anniversary of the Klassiker im Königsforst and retains a mix of championship and popular races on woodland terrain.
The race pages and downloadable maps state that the 5 km and 10 km courses are DLV‑measured and eligible for best lists, and past editions have included LVN championship races. Practical information on the organiser site includes parking at Parkplatz Rather Weg and public transport access via KVB line 1 to Refrath, while registration and up‑to‑date start lists, fees and route PDFs are available from the event website and the Infos/Downloads pages. Winners are honoured on the day and official results are published (results links reference Cologne Timing for past editions).
