Information
The Veluwe Ultra Trail 100km is one of 3 Ultra Specials of Trail Events. In addition to the VUT100 on the Veluwe, there is the BUT100 in North Brabant and the UHUT100 over the entire Utrechtse Heuvelrug.
The concept is very simple. All 100km events consist of 2 loops of (approximately) 50km, both starting and finishing at the same location. For the VUT100 this is the beautiful Landgoed Stakenberg. Race day is on Sunday, but participants are of course free book a room themselves, and start directly from the hotel early the next morning.
North and South
The North-loop starts early in the morning and goes via the Hendriksbos, via Liehorst, the Beekhuizerzand back to Stakenberg. The South-loop departs early in the afternoon via the Elspeterbosch, Vierhouten, Gemeentebossen van Nunspeet, via the Elspeterheide back to Stakenberg.
The start and finish of the trail will be at Hotel Stakenberg on Landgoed Stakenberg. This is beautifully situated in the woods just above Elspeet. Hotel Stakenberg is approximately 55 minutes from Utrecht, 1 hour and 30 minutes from Breda, and 1 hour 35 minutes from Eindhoven.
You can park on the grounds of Landgoed Stakenberg. Do not park the car on the road, but in the designated areas.
