Veluwse Ultra Trail (VUT100)
The Veluwse Ultra Trail takes place from basecamp at Landgoedhotel Stakenberg in Elspeet on the Veluwe. The event offers three official ultra distances and two distinct 50 km loops that both start and finish at Stakenberg.
- 50 km : one of the two 50 km loops, run individually.
- 75 km : a 25 km section plus a 50 km loop with return to basecamp between loops.
- 100 km : both 50 km loops, with a return to basecamp between loops.
GPX files are provided for the routes. Finishers of the ultras automatically receive a UTMB index. Drop bags are available for 100 km participants at the halfway return to basecamp and for 75 km participants after the first 25 km. Aid stations are present but do not provide disposable cups; participants must bring a race cup or flask. Organizers expect participants to be self-sufficient for stretches of about 10–15 km.
Official elevation figures are: 50 km north 250D+, 75 km 355D+, and 100 km 410D+. A finisher medal can be ordered separately and may be available at the race office if stock allows. The event capacity is limited to 700 participants.
Required personal items include a foldable cup, a charged mobile phone, a race vest with at least 1 liter of fluid, basic first aid, an emergency blanket, a rain jacket, sufficient nutrition, navigation device and a power bank when using a phone for navigation.
