Maare-Mosel Run — Races

The Maare-Mosel-Lauf — Läufe is an evening running festival held in Gillenfeld that brings together several distances and community races on a single day. Hosted around the Schule am Pulvermaar Gillenfeld, the event on 29 August 2026 features a half marathon, a 10 km main race, a non-timed GesundLand walk, a 5.3 km race, multiple children’s races and a company relay. The organiser presents an accessible programme for all ages and abilities with on-site entertainment and scheduled prize ceremonies.

Runners and walkers enjoy scenic routes through the maars and volcanic landscape of the Vulkaneifel, with marked aid stations and staged finish-area activities including live music and awards. The event emphasizes participation and enjoyment of the natural surroundings while providing organised race services for the timed main distances. Children’s races take place on the school grounds and a team/company relay is run under the same rules as the other races.
