Über die Veranstaltung

Mark van Hoorn and René Bleuanus reconnected through their shared passion: ultra-running and history. But they noticed a void in the trail world. While most events focus on the hunt for medals and personal records, they felt a lack of deeper meaning. This is why they founded the Liberation Trail. Not as just another race against the clock, but as a monument in motion. With their ‘ultra-hearts’ and extensive experience, they ensure you can fully focus on the most significant kilometers of your life: a salute to freedom

Verpflegung & Versorgung

On-course food and drink stations provide meals and refreshments during the event. Hot meals are served at camp sites; picnic-style options and energy补给 are available at aid stations along each stage.
