14. Sollingquerung 50 km 2026

The Sollingquerung begins with runners taking a morning bus from Dassel, as the race runs point-to-point from Bad Karlshafen back to Dassel. This is a small German ultramarathon, approximately 48 km long, held in November with about 100 participants. The course is not marked, requiring runners to navigate using GPS instead of traditional signs, flags, or marshals. This event fills quickly; over half the spots were taken on the first morning of registration, and late entries are not permitted. The participants are typically ultrarunners who prefer small, community-focused races. The atmosphere before the race seems as significant as the start itself: runners arrive the day before, lodge in Dassel, dine at a buffet, discuss equipment, play cards, and share drinks before the early departure.
