Diekseelauf - runners at the start in Bad Malente-Gremsmühlen (Copyright © 2016 Hendrik Böttger / runinternational.eu)

 

The Diekseelauf is a multi-terrain running event held at the Dieksee lake in Schleswig-Holstein, the northernmost state in Germany.

The race is an 11.5km-long, undulating and scenic run around the lake, the fourth-largest of about 200 lakes in the very beautiful Holsteinische Schweiz lakeland region.

Starting and finishing on the lakeside promenade in Bad Malente-Gremsmühlen, the route is a mix of roads and trails through lovely woods and rolling countryside and through the very pretty village of Timmdorf.

The event also offers a 5km Jedermannlauf ("run for everybody") and a 1.2km Kinderlauf (kids run). Both routes run out and back along the lake's southern shore.

In 2025, the Diekseelauf will take place for the first time since 2019.
