4. Georgsmarienhütter 0 - Ultra-Trail 2026

The Georgsmarienhütter 0-Ultra-Trail is a modest November trail ultra held near Osnabrück-Sutthausen, Germany. It begins and concludes at the Gut Sutthausen parking lot. Participants follow the Null-Wanderweg 0 loop near Georgsmarienhütte for approximately 47.7 km, featuring 860 meters of elevation gain. This distance slightly exceeds a marathon, offering a feel more akin to a long hike on local trails than a road race. The start is scheduled for 7:58 AM, and with a nine-hour cutoff, slower participants might require a headlamp as the event concludes. The course is a single large loop identified by a "0" marker. However, runners are advised to use a GPS track due to occasional missing or obscured markings. The starting point is convenient for this understated event: Sutthausen train station is approximately 400 meters away, and the parking lot is about 1 km from the actual trail. Laufen im Teutoburger Wald is the organizing body, with Uwe Laig managing manual timing. The race has a 40-runner cap, costs 20 Euro to enter, and includes a medal. Historical data indicates 123 total finishers, comprising 83 men and 40 women.
