Olne Spa Olne

Olne Spa Olne is a 71 km trail race starting at the Hall Omnisport on Chemin des Ecoliers in Olne. It begins at 8:00 AM, offering runners 2,296 meters of elevation gain. This is a demanding off-road event with significant climbing, not a flat road ultra. Registration is limited to 1,000 participants, requires pre-registration, and costs 35 euros. The name suggests an out-and-back route connecting Olne and Spa, towns in the Belgian Ardennes. The race is organized by Cercle Sportif Olnois, a local sports club that also hosts events like A travers Olne, Le Trefle a 4 feuilles, La nuit Olnoise, Jogging en Duo, and Olne Theux Olne. The club also organizes mountain biking and walking activities, integrating the race into a wider outdoor sports schedule rather than operating as an independent commercial event.
