Strava also offers a 30-day free trial to eligible users. That's enough time to try a few new routes and see whether you enjoy the extra training statistics.
Speaking of regular expenses, subscriptions aren't the only thing you might pay for every month. If you also send money to family or friends back home, Profee lets you transfer money from Germany to more than 90 destinations. You can check the exchange rate and learn more about Profee transfers on our website or in the app.
Strava Free: for everyday exercise
Strava Free records your workouts, tracks your progress and lets you share activities with friends. If you're happy knowing how far you've run and whether you're getting faster, you may never need a subscription. As an activity tracking app, Strava Free is more than enough for most casual exercisers.
The free version includes:
- GPS tracking: record running, cycling, walking, hiking and other sports.
- Workout statistics: see your distance, pace, speed, time and elevation.
- Activity history: revisit previous workouts and personal records.
- Sports social network: follow friends, give kudos (Strava's version of likes) and comment on activities.
- Clubs and challenges: find local running groups and join community challenges.
- Fitness watch syncing: connect compatible Garmin, Apple Watch and other devices.
If you've recently moved to Berlin, Hamburg or Munich, you can search for local running clubs in the app. Many groups share activities and organise runs through Strava, and you can join without paying.

Strava Individual: for routes and training statistics
Strava Individual costs 10.99 EUR per month or 74.99 EUR per year in Germany. The paid plan adds tools for discovering new routes, comparing your performance and following your training over time.
Here's what comes with Premium:
- Route planning. Create running or cycling routes, find popular routes nearby and download maps for offline use.
- Segment leaderboards. Compare your time on a particular stretch of road or trail with other athletes.
- Training analysis. See how your fitness and training effort change over weeks and months.
- Custom goals. Set targets, for example, running 100 km in a month, and track your progress.
- Personal heatmaps. See all the places you've run or cycled on one map.
The route planner is particularly appealing when you're somewhere new. Say you're spending a weekend in Munich and want to run 10 km. You can find a route local runners already use instead of running in a confusion around the city.
Strava Student and Family: for cheaper subscriptions
Students can get Strava Premium at half price, while the Family plan brings the annual plan down to around 32.50 EUR per person if four people share it. Both options include the same paid features as Individual.
Strava Student
To qualify, you need to be at least 16 and enrolled at an accredited college or university. Strava checks your student status through SheerID.
You can apply on the Strava student page. The discounted plan is available through Strava's website, not the App Store or Google Play. You'll need to verify your eligibility again when renewing.
Strava Family
Strava Family costs 129.99 EUR per year for up to four people. You can share it with friends, flatmates or relatives, when everyone lives in the same country.
Here's how the price works out if you split it equally:
| People sharing | Annual plan (per person) |
|---|---|
| 2 | 65.00 EUR |
| 3 | 43.33 EUR |
| 4 | 32.50 EUR |
Everyone keeps their own account, workouts and statistics. You don't have to share a profile, and your friends won't see activities you've made private.
Strava + Runna: for race training
Strava + Runna costs 149.99 EUR per year in Germany – it combines Strava Premium with Runna, an app that creates personalised running plans.
Strava shows you how your running is going, while Runna helps you decide what to run next.
For example, if you've signed up for your first half marathon, Runna can build a training schedule around your current fitness, race date and available days.
Your plan might include:
- Easy runs to build endurance
- Intervals to improve speed
- Longer weekend runs
- Recovery days between harder sessions
Runna also offers audio coaching during workouts, so you can follow your session without repeatedly checking your phone.
The combined subscription includes Strava's route planner, segment leaderboards and training statistics alongside Runna's coaching features.

Before your first run, check your privacy settings as well. GPS routes can reveal where you live or work. Strava lets you hide the beginning and end of your routes or restrict who sees your activities, even on a free account.
Strava subscription: how to cancel
You can cancel Strava at any time, but you need to do it at least 24 hours before your renewal date to avoid another payment.
The steps depend on where you subscribed:
| Where you subscribed | How to cancel |
|---|---|
| Strava website | Profile picture – Settings – My account – Cancel subscription |
| Apple App Store | Strava settings – Your Strava subscription – Manage your subscription |
| Google Play Store | Strava settings – Your Strava subscription – Manage your subscription |
For Apple and Google subscriptions, you'll finish the cancellation through the store.
Your Premium features remain available until the end of the paid period. After that, Strava switches your account to Free, but your recorded workouts and activity history stay where they are.
