Black Forest ULTRA Bike Marathon in Kirchzarten im Hochschwarzwald

The Black Forest ULTRA Bike Marathon in Kirchzarten (Ultra Bike Marathon Black Forest / Black Forest ULTRA Bike Marathon) is a three-day MTB festival held across 24–26 July 2026, with the main race day on 26 July. The event combines international-level competition and mass-participation routes, hosting HERO UCI Marathon World Cup races alongside the ULTRA, MARATHON, SPEED TRACK and SHORT TRACK distances. The official site and timetable show an on-site expo, catering and a weekend programme that includes a pasta party, team area and shuttle connections for riders and spectators.

Route information published on the organiser pages lists four main routes (ULTRA, MARATHON, SPEED TRACK, SHORT TRACK) with explicit distances and ascent figures, and the organiser states that e‑mountainbikes/e‑bikes are not permitted on those routes. The weekend also includes family and youth offerings such as the Bambini-Trophy and a regional Schwarzwälder MTB Cup, and the race hub is centred on Sportstadion Kirchzarten with bib pickup at the local sports hall. Entrants are directed to the official registration page (Anmeldung) and the event regulations and course overview for full race rules, start lists and timing details.
