    Tours   

We currently ​offer six different ​running tours across Hamburg. Each tour offers a unique experience of the city and all the routes are suitable for ​running​ throughout the year. If this is your first running tour in Hamburg we would recommend ​you​ to try our classic Alster Run.
 

​

Classic Alster Run (7,9 km)

For sure one of the most attractive and popular running routes you will find in Germany if not the world. The route takes you around the Outer Alster Lake and you get to pass some of the most famous spots in Hamburg and maybe see a celebrity or two during the run. This run is simply stunning during all seasons and around the clock.

Elbe River Run (8,2 km)

A favorit run and also one of our longest run takes us close to Hamburg’s main waterway, the Elbe river, which is one of the major waterways of Europe. Explore this mighty river and the ​impressive​ ship ​traffic on​ this exciting ​route​ and experience some breathtaking views over Hamburg and the vibrant harbour. This tour is also bookable as a sunset run in the summer months (highly recommended) 

Airport Run (8,6 km)

If you are in to plane spotting, and like the airport atmosphere, this is your run! You are guaranteed to see multiple planes taking off and landing when you take on this thrilling airport run! We will also wind through some the woods and run along scenic nature spots.

​

​

HafenCity Run (7,0 km)

Our Run through the HafenCity is a run through a utopian cityscape built into the Elbe river. The tour takes us through an outstanding urban development project on the waterfront and takes us past some architectural highlights such as the Elbbrücken, Elbphilharmonie and the St. Pauli Piers.

Planten un Blomen Run (6,4 km)

One of the highlights of Hamburg and also perfect for a run ​at ​any time of the year. This ​route takes​ us through H​amburg’s popular urban park, ​Planten un Blomen (Plants and Flowers), which is situated right in the center of Hamburg.

Suburb Run (8,8 km)

Just a few ​kilometers​ from the city center awaits a route that will  take us through a beautiful natural recreation area, allotment gardens  and along the ​quintessential​ Hamburg steam. Definitely a insider tip to discover the r​eal Hamburg locals fall in love with, off the tourist paths. The starting point for this run is where the red metro line ends (Niendorf Nord).
