The SÜDTHÜRINGENTRAIL – Der Trail mit HERZ is a two-day trail running festival centred on Suhl in Thuringia, Germany, held on 11–12 September 2026. The event brands itself as a multi-race weekend with several distinct races taking place on Saturday and administrative, expo and social activities on the preceding Friday. Races include HELDENTRAIL, RIESENTRAIL and the family-oriented WICHTELTRAIL, and the programme highlights early-morning starts and a late-afternoon finish window for all distances. The event is operated under the SÜDTHÜRINGENTRAIL branding and integrates regional cup competitions into its awards.
The schedule includes an expo and pasta party on Friday, packet collection at SIMSON-Gewerbepark, and a full expo on Saturday alongside race starts and finish operations. Saturday’s timetable features early starts (05:00 and 07:00) for the longer courses, a 14:00 time-limit checkpoint for the HELDENTRAIL, and a 10:30 WICHTELTRAIL start officiated by Suhl’s mayor. From mid-afternoon the event presents awards for the SÜDTHÜRINGENTRAIL Cup and affiliated cups including the German Trailrunning Cup, and the site offers optional breakfast and other participant services. Participants are directed to the organiser’s official pages for detailed course maps, compulsory kit rules and registration information.
