The Berliner Morgenpost Great 10K, with its start and finish areas set against the picturesque backdrop of Schloss Charlottenburg and a section through Berlin Zoo, is one of the most beautiful road races in Germany. Just over 7,000 runners will take to the course on Sunday, October 12, 2025. Parts of western Berlin’s city center will be closed to traffic and parking between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Drivers are asked to avoid the area.
After the start, the route will take runners along Otto-Suhr-Allee on the southbound lane to Ernst-Reuter-Platz, from there along Straße des 17. Juni to Großer Stern, then right onto Hofjägerallee to the intersection with Stülerstraße. There, they will turn right again onto Katharina-Heinroth-Ufer and into the zoo. At the Elefantentor entrance and exit, the route continues along Budapester Straße and via Kantstraße and Windscheidstraße to the finish line on Schlossstraße.
Late registrations for the Berliner Morgenpost Great 10K are still possible up to one hour before the start on Sunday. You can register late when you pick up your race number on Saturday, October 11, 2025, at Boulevard Berlin (Schloßstraße 10, 12163 Berlin-Steglitz) or on Sunday at the Schloss Charlottenburg.
For the race on Sunday, we recommend traveling by public transportation (U7 to Richard-Wagner-Platz, U2 to Sophie-Charlotte-Platz, or S41/S42 to Westend).
Organizer Martin Seeber: “Berlin is known to have the fastest streets in the world for runners. Rarely are as many personal bests achieved in races in other cities as here with us. I expect many personal bests again at the Berliner Morgenpost Great 10K on Sunday. I am also delighted that German and international running stars such as Alina Reh (SSV Ulm, nine-time German champion and multiple European champion) and Simon Boch (LG Telis Finanz Regensburg, reigning German champion in the 10 km road race and multiple German cross-country and half marathon champion) will be at the starting line. My sincere thanks go to the Berliner Morgenpost, whose sponsorship has made this race possible.”
