Being close to the action. This is the reason why the Knielingen horse race, which now looks back on a tradition of over 90 years, is so popular with spectators. The participants also appreciate the family atmosphere of the event. Anyone who has experienced the thunderous applause and enthusiasm of the spectators will come back again and again.
Under the motto "Mixed cards", exciting trotting and gallop races are offered on the right-hand course. Trotting races in particular are unique in the Karlsruhe region and have a long tradition here. The fast sulky teams provide thrills in exciting finishes. The gallop races offer a small foretaste of the spring meeting in Iffezheim. The smaller course in Knielingen allows spectators to experience the temperament of the thoroughbreds up close. Participants from all over Germany are expected for both the trotters and the gallopers. At the betting counters, it is possible to bet on your own favorites and, with a little luck, turn a small stake into a big win. Our younger guests can look forward to a colorful children's program. With pony rides, face painting and other attractions, there's no chance of boredom. The event starts at 1 pm. A limited number of parking spaces are available. However, the racecourse is also easy to reach by streetcar line S5 (Eggensteiner Straße stop). There are also plenty of bicycle parking facilities.
