About the event
The Königsschlösser Romantic Marathon is a breathtaking race through the heart of Bavaria’s East Allgäu, attracting more than 800 runners annually. Beginning in the charming town of Füssen, the route combines half asphalt and half forest trails, delivering a memorable mix of terrain and scenery. Participants weave through the Hopfer forest, skirt the serene shores of Lake Hopfensee and Lake Forggensee, and cross the floodplains of the Lech River before reaching the marathon’s most iconic highlights—the royal castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau. Perfect weather conditions often greet runners, adding to the magic of lush green meadows, panoramic mountain views, and the fairytale silhouettes of the castles. Every registration includes a finisher’s medal, a downloadable certificate, a finisher video, professional timekeeping by Davengo, and access to a pre-race pasta party, creating a complete and rewarding race experience.

Results: Schmidt runs away with it in Bavaria
23 Jul, 2015 (Thu)
Marathon results
Paul Schmidt finished almost 25 minutes ahead of a nearly 500 runner field to win the 15th annual Konigsschlosser Romantik Lauf Marathon in East Allgau of Bavaria.
Schmidt crosses the German country side, castles included, working through woodlands and past a pair of lakes in a convincing 2:27:29.
A mark still almost eight minutes off the record of 2:19:08 set by Titus Kosjei in 2010.
Runner-up Marco Diehl was next to show, finishing with a time of 2:52:18.
Frank Merrbach (2:53:48) made it in just a step ahead of Pierre Fournier (2:53:51) for third.
For the women, it was Doris Marquardt in dominating fashion.
Taking first with a time of 3:03:04, Marquardt crossed the finish line just shy of 15 minutes faster than the next best finisher.
Runner-up Maria Magdalena (3:18:02) managed to hold off Karen Sobrino (3:18:41) for second.
