F.A.Q

Our most popular questions

We are very busy preparing this event and are currently negotiating with multiple cities, race venues and castles. There is soo much choice ! At the same time our field team is working hard to design the perfect course for you, carefully selecting the most scenic trails off the region.

To determine our final date we to have some more meetings to attend. Right now our preferred date of the inaugural event will be in May 2026

Our field team is designing the track so we will have a long distance and a short distance .

The long distance will be between 53 km and 58 km with 2250-2500 m positive altitude gain

The short distance will be between 30 km and 35 km with 1350-1500 m positive altitude gain

If there is a lot of demand we might consider adding an even shorter distance like 15 - 20 km, but for now this is not planned

The fastest way to find out is to like our facebook page and/or leave your mail address.
As soon as we can we will reveal our host city ( or cities ) and our date.

After we obtain all the authorisations and  the necessary permits we will open our registrations

No! Our fastest elite athletes will of course be very strong and we expect them to average 14 km/u. However most of our participants will be a lot slower and they will take time to enjoy the great scenic views, to take picture and to eat, drink & rest at our aid stations.

If you want to finish this challenge successfully however don't waste to much time cause you will have to run / walk at an average speed of 4km/h to make it back in time !
