Ultra-Trail des Chevaliers

With 5 races on the programme, ranging from 17km to 159km, runners will be able to embark on a chivalrous epic through the Vosges mountains, exploring fortified castles and picturesque villages along paths where nature is both wild and unspoilt, before ending their adventure on the ramparts of Obernai, one of the most beautiful detours in France. The flagship race, the Ultra-Trail des Chevaliers, will set off from Turckheim, covering 159km and 5,800 metres of ascent, and will take in a host of fortified castles, including Haut-Koenigsbourg and Hohlandsbourg, as well as the abbey of Mont St Odile and many of the villages along the Alsace wine route.
