Sportplatz Heidenheimer Straße 53, 13467 Berlin‑Reinickendorf
The event titled "70. Herbstwaldlauf / Gunni-Sachs-Gedenklauf 2026" is an annual cross-country run through the Tegeler Forst near Reinickendorf, traditionally held on the first Advent Sunday. The race is presented on the City of Berlin's sport and fitness calendar and is described as Berlin's oldest cross-country race, combining competitive and community elements. The occasion honours Stephan "Gunni" Sachs and operates as a year‑end fixture that brings runners together to start the Advent season.
The meeting offers a range of distances for all ages, with the main race a roughly 11‑kilometre cross run and shorter options for families and youth categories. The event is community focused, with every finisher receiving a medal and traditional Advent refreshments such as Christstollen and tea provided as part of the finish‑area offering. Typical participation is around 1.1K runners, creating a friendly race atmosphere rather than a large commercial expo.
