Elmshorner Cross im Liether Wald 2026

The Elmshorner Cross takes place in Elmshorn, Schleswig-Holstein, with races held within the woods of Liether Wald. The primary race covers 8.9 km, complemented by shorter distances of 3.3 km, 1.6 km, and 0.9 km. Typically scheduled for mid-November with a 10:30 AM start, it offers a late-autumn club cross atmosphere distinct from road races. The event caters to various participants: adults may select the longer course, while children and students compete in separate races. Registration is managed via the organizer's website. Post-event, the organizers provide start lists, participant rosters, rankings, results, photographs, and race reports. Previous editions have been documented on HDsports, allowing prospective runners to review past fields and race-day content before registering.
