RunThrough Trails Engelberg 2026

Want to discover a new face of Switzerland? Then come push your limits at the RunThrough Engelberg, in the magnificent Canton of Obwalden in Switzerland! 🌄 Whether you're a mountain enthusiast or a nature lover 🏞️, this competition will awaken your trail runner spirit with its various events. In the middle of August, you'll tackle the numerous trails of this mountain resort, which will take you to the summits ⬆️. The RunThrough events are a benchmark in the trail running world: Girona, Interlaken, or Morzine-Avoriaz, the courses match the high standards of the trail runners who take part! 👑

Several distances are offered, so there are no excuses if you're new to trail running! 👶 25, 56, or 100 km, it's a true weekend of crampons on and poles in hand you'll experience 👟. We almost forgot the smallest event of the race: the 7 km vertical race. Even though it's short, it won't spare your legs, as the course will have you climbing to the top! 🚀 Be prepared for 900 mD+ in the shortest race of the RunThrough Engelberg, compared to over 5,000 for the 100 km. Starting from all courses, you'll traverse the Fürenalp valley and head to the Brunni cable car ⛷️. Thanks to this trail, you'll quickly memorize the ski lifts and piste map 🧠 before the ski season begins! 😝 For ultra-trail runners, several small lakes are to be discovered in the last 30 kilometers, enough to recharge before tackling the final climbs and crossing the finish line! 💪 You won’t lack motivation in this event: the course, the runners, the supporters, and prime weather... This race can only be a success! 🏆

After giving your best, we recommend taking the time to explore the surroundings 🤓. You can visit the magnificent Engelberg Abbey, a haven of peace and history ⛪, or embark on a cable car trip to Mount Titlis for a panoramic view of the entire valley 🤩. If the major Swiss cities intrigue you, we recommend exploring the charming village of Lucerne, with its famous Chapel Bridge and captivating museums, just an hour's drive 🚗 away. If your legs are sore the day after your race 😬, you can easily relax with a walk along the Lake Lucerne, for a dose of nature and serenity 💆‍♂️.

Don’t wait any longer to experience this unique adventure in Engelberg and let the mountain enchant you! 🏃‍♂️
