BROCKENHEROES 2026

BROCKENHEROES 2026 is a mountain sport event centred in Schierke that combines a Bergzeitfahren (mountain time trial) and Bergzeitlauf (mountain run) on the Brocken roads. The event offers multiple disciplines and age-group categories, with primary distances of 11.2 km and 24 km and combined classifications for competitors who start both bike and run legs. The cycling elements include BDR-sanctioned races with separate BDR classifications, and e‑bikes are explicitly permitted in the 11.2 km road category with prior entry on the starter list. Participants are advised that the event follows the organiser's regulations and the Wettkampfbestimmungen des BDR for applicable races.

Race day logistics emphasise a race‑village atmosphere in Schierke with a Friday packet pickup and on‑the‑day registration options subject to late fees. The organiser, Pro Sport Harz e.V., provides timing and results services, course refreshments (aid stations), medical cover from DRK/Bergwacht and prize ceremonies later on the day. The Ausschreibung notes a transponder deposit, trophies and material prizes, and recommends arrival on Friday with travel suggestions via Wernigerode and local bus or the Brockenbahn. Entrants should consult the official brockenheroes.de pages for finalised schedules, confirmed distances and the registration deadline of 18 September 2026 for online entries.
