Participants can choose from a variety of distances ranging from a challenging 38 km to shorter courses like the family-friendly 5 km and kids' trails for younger runners. The trail winds through serene countryside, including areas around Kiekenberg and Ketliker Skar, with each route offering unique terrain and breathtaking scenery. The race starts and finishes at the local sports hall, where participants will find a vibrant atmosphere filled with fellow runners eager to explore these beautiful paths. This year's event features updated routes and new distances for all ages, ensuring there is something for every level of runner. For those opting for longer runs, prepare for an adventure through diverse landscapes that include fields, forests, and challenging trails. The shorter courses provide a perfect introduction to trail running with less demanding but equally scenic routes. Registration closes on December 13, 2026, or when the maximum number of participants is reached, so early sign-ups are recommended to secure your spot in this unforgettable race through nature. Participants should note that there will be no prize ceremony, but timing chips will track everyone's performance.
