The 2012 Race Race will be something different for the regular participants in recent years. 21 years ago, the first Vechtrace started in Ane and finished in Hardenberg, all over the Dutch Overijsselse Vecht. For the last 10 years, the race started in Laar (Germany) and finished in Gramsbergen, near our boathouse. That meant a race interruption in the open lock the Haandrik with a final sprint on the canal. Now it has been decided to run the course all over the Vecht, like the first years, but about another part of the Vecht. The start will be almost 2 kilometers past Laar, the finish just before the crossing of the Vecht with the canal. That means 5 kilometers of Vechtrace without interruption, halfway through the border between Germany and the Netherlands. See the ticket before the trail on our website. It is a beautiful challenging race course that we would like to invite you to! Please note: given the longer periods of up and running, it is important that you are on time.
