Course information
The event page provides an interactive map that shows the routes for all disciplines held within the GENERALI BERLIN-MARATHON framework: runners, inlineskating, the 5K, and the mini‑marathon. The map includes additional layers such as cheering points and road closures; these layers can be shown or hidden via the map legend. The current map displays the routes and information from the BMW BERLIN‑MARATHON 2026 and will be updated when the GENERALI BERLIN‑MARATHON 2027 map is available.
The marathon course measures 42,195 km and is described as having very few elevation metres. The route runs past multiple sights in Berlin. There are 15 feeding stations along the marathon course.
On-course refreshments and supplies are specified by kilometre:
- Water at km 5, 12, 17.5, 22.5, 27.5, 32.5, 34.5, 38 and 40.
- Water, fruit, tea and Maurten Drink Mix 160 at km 9, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 36.
- Maurten Gel 100 at km 27.5.
All drinks are handed out in cups. Refill stations are available at the last table of each water point and are marked with a Refill sign. Own bottles can be refilled and own nutrition may be deposited for collection at selected feeding points (km 5, 9, 15, 20, 25, 30, 36 and 40). Containers for personal nutrition must be labelled with name, bib number and target feed point, must not be glass, and must be delivered to the Eigenverpflegung stand between 07:00 and 07:45 on race day. A truck for collection is positioned outside the fenced area at Annemarie‑Renger‑Strasse / Otto‑von‑Bismarck‑Allee.
Partners active on the course include BRITA, Maurten, VILSA and ERDINGER Alkoholfrei. PDF downloads include a Start & Finish area plan and further route materials. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
