Losheimer Trailfest 2026

The Losheimer Trailfest 2026 is a two‑day trail running festival held at Losheim am See and nearby Mettlach, organised by HartfüßlerTrail e.V. (partnerverein TV Losheim). The festival features a wide range of distances from a 6.5 km Youth Trail to a 100+ km ultra, and several routes carry ITRA / UTMB index status, making it suitable for both recreational runners and athletes seeking qualifying points. The event emphasizes natural, single‑track terrain across the Saar‑Hunsrück‑Hochwald landscape, with notable climbs and technical descents that define the courses.

Race infrastructure includes dropbag handling for the longer distances, shuttle services between start locations (bookable during registration), and a pasta party for participants by prior reservation. GPX files and detailed course maps are released shortly before race day to reflect any last‑minute changes, and the organisers limit entries to manage field sizes and trail impact. Sustainability measures and safety guidance are highlighted on the official pages, with advice on cups, waste, and forest hazards.
