The Sonnwendlauf, or "Solstice Run," is a popular series of running events predominantly organized across Germany and Austria, strategically scheduled around the summer solstice in June. These events celebrate the longest day of the year by offering a variety of distances, typically ranging from shorter children's races and 5km fun runs to more challenging 10km and half-marathon courses. Participants are drawn to the unique twilight or evening atmosphere, often enjoying scenic routes through natural landscapes or charming towns. Beyond competitive running, the Sonnwendlauf strongly emphasizes community engagement, fostering a festive and active gathering for participants of all ages and abilities.
