A fast, scenic course primarily along the Rhine River and through Düsseldorf's picturesque neighborhoods. The route follows the beautiful riverbank promenades (Rheinufer), offering stunning views of the river and the city skyline, particularly through the old town (Altstadt) with its charming architecture and numerous beer gardens.
Spring weather in the Rhineland brings mild temperatures ideal for marathon running. Expect cool mornings with the possibility of light rain, but comfortable conditions for the bulk of the race.
The Race
Düsseldorf
The Düsseldorf Marathon was founded in 1984, during the golden age of mass-participation running. Now 42 years old, it has established itself as a beloved fixture in Düsseldorf, growing from its early editions into a race with genuine character and loyal following.
The course record of 02:07:48, set by Moses Kemboi in 2019, speaks to what the Düsseldorf Marathon offers elite athletes: a fast, honest course where serious times are achievable. The record has drawn increasingly competitive fields year after year.
Runners come to the Düsseldorf Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Düsseldorf has a reputation as a PB factory, with the roads seemingly designed to keep your pace honest and your splits consistent from start to finish.
For thousands of runners each year, the Düsseldorf Marathon is their first marathon. The combination of a forgiving course, generous time limits, and supportive crowds has earned this race a reputation as the place where marathon journeys begin. The first-timer energy on race morning is palpable.
