The Arzbacher Trailrun begins and ends at Burgwiese stadium in Arzbach, a Westerwald village. This is a trail race, not a paved circuit, featuring climbs, uneven terrain, and a character that suggests runners should expect challenges and be prepared to adapt.
Shortly after the start, the course follows a stream towards the village outskirts before entering the countryside surrounding Arzbach. Participants will navigate stream crossings and wooded areas, ascending ridges near the town. Sections of easier running are interspersed with more demanding ground. Sportverein 1919 Arzbach e.V., the local sports club for football and tennis, is the organizer.
