Schloss Wickrath Lauf
The Schloss Wickrath Lauf takes place on a May race day, starting at the sports field near Schloss Wickrather Pferdehof, adjacent to the Schloss Wickrath castle grounds in Mönchengladbach-Wickrath. The event offers a program tailored for local runners and families, featuring a 5 km run, a 10 km run, a 5 km walk, a short Schülerlauf for participants under 12, and a charity run for those under 8. Adult races begin simultaneously, with the youngest participants starting earlier. Timing is managed by a Race Result UHF system, with official rankings based on gross time. Results and certificates will be accessible online shortly after the race.
The routes commence and conclude at the sports field, crossing the castle park and surrounding area. Schloss Wickrath is a moated castle complex situated on the Niers river, boasting a public park protected as a monument and recognized on the Road of Garden Art between the Rhine and Maas. The site's origins trace back to a medieval water castle, with the current baroque complex constructed in the 18th century and later updated for a State Garden Show. Children, walkers, 5 km runners, and 10 km runners share a unified, compact event layout. Refreshments including water and fruit are provided at the finish line, with trophies awarded to the top three in each category and a Hawaiian necklace for all finishers.
