Berlin Valentine's Day Run

The Berliner Valentinslauf zum Valentinstag is a Valentine’s Day themed road run held at the Gärten der Welt in Berlin on 15 February 2026. The event (also billed as the 6th Valentinslauf) offers a friendly, inclusive atmosphere for individuals and paired entries, with categories for children, newcomers and experienced runners. Distances comprise a 3 km fun/entry race, a 5 km loop called "Die kleine Liebe" and a 10 km two-lap race called "Die große Liebe", all run on surfaced park paths with kilometre markers and at least one on-course refreshment station. Walkers, Nordic walkers and baby joggers are explicitly welcome, and paired finish rules and pair medals are a distinctive feature.

Practical arrangements include chip timing integrated into the race bib, bib pickup on race morning and a finish area with refreshments (including mulled wine), a secure bag drop and finisher medals for individuals or pairs. The organisers are Ausdauerfreunde e.V. with full event information, detailed rules and registration available on the official Ausschreibung and Anmeldung pages at the event website. The course is a flat, paved loop through the Gardens of the World, making it suited to scenic but fast running and family-friendly participation. Transport and parking details are provided in the Ausschreibung to assist arrival and logistics for participants and spectators.
