Lichtenstein Trail 2027

Nestled in the picturesque village of Lichtenstein-Unterhausen, the annual Schlössle Trail Race offers runners an unforgettable journey through stunning Alpine landscapes. Set for Saturday, May 8th, 2027, this event features two courses: a half marathon and a shorter trail run.
The Half Marathon course spans 22 kilometers with nearly 900 meters of elevation gain, challenging participants to navigate winding trails that wind their way through lush forests and over rolling hills. The race starts promptly at 10:00 AM from the Lichtensteinhalle/Rathaus in Unterhausen's town center. With a cut-off time at approximately kilometer 12 around 11:45 AM, runners must pace themselves carefully to avoid disqualification. This scenic route concludes by 2:00 PM that afternoon.
For those seeking a more compact adventure, the 11-kilometer trail run offers breathtaking views and challenging terrain over roughly 500 meters of elevation gain. Starting just fifteen minutes earlier at 9:45 AM on the same day from Unterhausen's central location, this race is ideal for runners looking to tackle varied landscapes without committing to a full half marathon.
Both events are designed with safety in mind; registration fees cover medical support and emergency services along the routes. Participants can download GPX files ahead of time to familiarize themselves with the courses. Early bird pricing applies until March 30th, after which standard rates will be enforced. The deadline for registrations is April 29th.
The race day atmosphere promises a vibrant community spirit as runners gather in Unterhausen's heart before setting off on their respective journeys through nature’s splendor. Whether you're an experienced trail runner or new to the sport, the Schlössle Trail Race offers unique opportunities to explore Lichtenstein-Unterhausen's natural beauty and rich surroundings.
With limited spots available—170 for the shorter run and 330 for the half marathon—it’s advisable to secure your entry early. The race organizers emphasize that on-site registration is not possible, so plan accordingly.
