The start of the 10K is in the centre of Horw on Ringstrasse. After a starting loop, the run leads through the middle of the festival and cheering zone from Horw towards Lucerne. On the way there, the route leads through the modern soccer stadium of FC Lucerne – a few metres from the players' benches. Who knows, maybe you will discover yourself live on the big screen in the stadium. The next highlight is already waiting: the Culture & Congress-Center Lucerne (KKL). Finally, the course leads through Lucerne's picturesque old town to the finish arena in the Swiss Museum of Transport.
The easiest way is to take the train "S4" or "S5" from Lucerne main station to Horw. Alternatively, you can also catch the bus no. 20 from Lucerne main station. The starting area is signposted from Horw railway station and can be reached within a few minutes.
