Herewith some questions that we typically get:
Do I need to be a superpower athlete?
NO!!! It is a relaxing sightrun. We run in the pace that is comfortable with you. If you can run 8 km in ~1 hour – 1:20 hours, then you are fine to go. If you can run faster, of course, welcome. You can also try to challenge the Sightrunners with running at high speed but this might impact our “speaking quality” 🙂
What do I need to bring?
You should wear running shoes and clothes that are compatible to sports. Nothing else. Of course on very hot days you should bring yourself a small bottle of water if you want it.
How can we pay?
Either Cash or Paypal is possible. If you book via tripadvisor or getyourguide, you can also use their booking systems but of course this means provision for them and less is being left for us ;-/
What amount do we need to pay?
Please see our conditions on our page about prices and time table
Where do we meet?
We will share the exact location via google maps / whatsapp with you. Basically we meet in the city center at a central metro station. Easy to reach. Depending on the hotel you are staying in, we could also pick you up from there and start the run from your hotel.
Is this your main profession?
No! This is just a hobby that we are doing next to our normal jobs. We do it because we love it! If you want to learn more about us, your host, the sightrunners, have a look here: The Sightrunners
How many Sightruns do you do?
Usually we have between 0 and 3 Sightruns per month. Out capacity would be up to 3 runs per week, more we would not be able to cover. Hence, we are open to your run for sure 🙂
How does a Sightrun work?
It is RUNNING and while running we talk with you. We expalin you the nice parts of the city.
It is not walking or with a lot of stopps where oyu are getting cold again.
We will take your speed and make it comfortable for you.

What is your target group?
In general we focus on people that are new to Düsseldorf. This can be visitors of a fair (most of the time the man is working and the wife is running with us), it can be tourists (especially from Netherlands) or expats that are new to Düsseldorf.
Actually the reson for being in Düsseldorf does not matter as long as the person loves to run and is interested in a new city.
Can I get an autograph of the Sightrunners?
Yes, this is possible. Please send a request via post-mail including a stamped return envelope.
We typically answer these kind of requests within 2 weeks depending on the amount of requests that are in queue.
