Tour My Run!Tour My Run!Munich is a green Bavarian capital set on an alpine river — a rare running ground where you go from the avenues of a royal park to the gravel of a riverbank in a few strides. Early in the morning, when the Isar still carries its cool mountain water and the English Garden is nearly empty, the city shows a different face. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the 78 km of paths in the Englischer Garten, one of Europe's largest urban parks, around the Kleinhesseloher See; the wild banks of the Isar and its dirt trails running south to the Flaucher meadows; the paved loops of the 1972 Olympic Park; or the grand baroque avenues of Nymphenburg palace park. Not a sightseeing coach, not a random jog around your hotel: one hour of running with someone who lives here, at your pace, who knows the best links, the quiet stretches and the right tempo.

Get the free guideYour guide isn't a service provider — they're a Munich local who loves to run and wants to show you their city. They adjust the pace and distance to your level, pick the route to suit the time of day — the flat English Garden avenues to cruise, the Isar trails for nature, the Olympic Park hills for effort — and share the Munich you won't find in guidebooks. Many of our Munich guides are running-club members and sports students who know their training loops by heart. You leave with a real memory — and often a GPX track to run again on your own.
Public, well-known routes you can run on your own — a solid plan B to get moving right away. But the best of TourMyRun is still discovering them with a local who takes you, at your pace.
A flat, shaded loop through the livelier southern half of the park, past the Chinese Tower and the Kleinhesseloher See lake. Munich's most-run route, almost no road crossings.
Start : Odeonplatz (city centre)
Dirt trails along the river, from the centre south to the meadows and gravel beaches of the Flaucher. Nature, shade and alpine coolness — perfect in the morning.
Start : Deutsches Museum / Gasteig
A paved, rolling loop around the 1972 Olympic site — the lake, the hill and the Olympic tower. A touch of elevation and viewpoints, 5 km from the centre.
Start : Olympiazentrum (U3)
A large loop on gravel avenues around the palace's baroque gardens, flat and relaxed, with the grand canal in perspective. The escape to the west of the city.
Start : Nymphenburg Palace
