Uni-Sportgelände, Nachtigallenweg 86, Bonn, 53127, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany
The Kottenforst Halbmarathon 2026 is a community‑focused half marathon that weaves asphalt and forest trails through the Kottenforst nature park around Bonn. The event name, Kottenforst Halbmarathon, reflects its local character and emphasis on enjoyment and personal challenge rather than big‑city spectacle. The officially measured 21.1 km course is described as runnable and scenic, offering a fast loop with roughly 65 metres of ascent and a mix of surfaces. The race starts and finishes at the Uni‑Sportgelände on Nachtigallenweg, providing a compact event footprint convenient for local participants.
The organiser, Laufen im Rheinland, presents the race as down‑to‑earth and friendly with practical race‑day provisions rather than large‑scale services. Participants receive a finisher medal and a certificate, and there are podiums for the top three men and top three women. Facilities noted on the event page include parking, toilets, a secure bag drop and basic aid stations with water and fruit, while there are no changing rooms or showers. Entry is open from age 16 and the listed entry fee starts at €10 with multiple registration options via the organiser's site.
