Preparing for Wéngert's Trail 2027?
Most probable date, pending the organiser's announcement. The countdown is indicative; the training calendar is offered once the date is confirmed.
Race day is Sun 10 Oct 2027, in 343 days. Counted back from that date, a two-week taper would start on Mon 27 Sep 2027; the planner lays out base, build and peak from the day you set it. The taper is the one phase with a meta-analysed optimum: about two weeks, training volume cut by 41 to 60 percent, intensity and frequency kept (Bosquet et al. 2007). A standard structure, not a training plan and not medical advice.

About the event (2027 edition)
The Wengert's Trail is a trail-running event through the Moselle vineyards above Remerschen and Schengen, in Luxembourg's southernmost wine-growing corner. Runners cross vine terraces, descend into wooded ravines and pass the European institutions' symbolic border crossing at Schengen. Three courses all start at 13:00: a timed 19 km trail plus 14 km and 9 km options that can be run or walked. The 13:00 start, the vineyard scenery and the post-race atmosphere at the Waistross starting area in Remerschen give the event a festive feel.
The 2027 Wéngert's Trail is expected on Sunday 10 October 2027 at 13:00, a date estimated from previous editions (held on the second Sunday of October, with a 13:00 start, in 2024, 2025 and 2026); the organiser has not announced it yet. The event starts from 34 Waistross in Remerschen and runs through the vineyards of the Luxembourg Moselle. The 2026 edition offered 9 km and 14 km courses for running or walking and a timed trail run of about 18 km. This page will be updated as soon as the official date is published.
