FINISH

Freibad Maulachtal Badwiesen, Crailsheim

The Crailsheim half marathon (Burgberglauf) is a relatively young race, first held in 2019.

Its defining feature is a forest-and-meadow course through Burgbergwald in Crailsheim, Baden-Württemberg.

Participants can choose between the 21.1km half marathon, the 10.6km Viertelmarathon (quarter marathon), and the half marathon relay.

Course mostly follows unpaved paths between forests and meadows,

with approximately 180m of ascent and descent, giving it more of a rolling trail-race feel than a flat course.

The 'Burgberg' in the race name refers to a hill with castle ruins;

in fact, course is known to pass through the forest on this hill, creating the feeling of running through nature.

Typical race-season temperature: around 17°C (62°F): Short sleeves — hydrate for the warmth
First held: 2019
