27. Eifelmarathon

The 27th Eifel Marathon in Waxweiler will take place on June 14, 2026. The idyllic landscape of the Südeifel offers dreamlike routes that were first presented in Waxweiler in 1998 and have since thrilled runners every year ([laufreport.de](https://www.laufreport.de/bericht/0625/waxweiler/index3.htm?utm_source=openai)). The marathon course of 42.195 km leads through hilly nature trails along the Prüm, around the Bitburg reservoir, and back to Waxweiler, with a total of about 764 meters of elevation gain ([marathon.de](https://www.marathon.de/laufevent/eifelmarathon/?utm_source=openai)). In the previous year, 2025, ideal running conditions prevailed thanks to a cooling thunderstorm – over 500 participants took to the start, enjoying a pasta party, bib number distribution, and a lively atmosphere along the route ([laufreport.de](https://www.laufreport.de/bericht/0625/waxweiler/index3.htm?utm_source=openai)). There is no lottery; registration was done online and was open until June 11, 2026 ([spoferan.com](https://spoferan.com/events/eifelmarathon?utm_source=openai)).
