ULTRA VIKING GERMANY

It’s that time again: Ultra Viking Germany is back – and this time, the world’s most extreme obstacle run event lands in Frankfurt… For the first time ever! Are you ready to make the impossible possible? To fight through more than 60 kilometers of mud, water, sweat, and battle? And to conquer 135 brutal obstacles? All within 10 hours? Then this is your chance to make history.

The Ultra Viking is not just a run. It’s a beast of a challenge. Since the first edition in 2018 in Cologne, where only 42% reached the finish, this mythical battle has become the ultimate test for the strongest among us. Now it’s your turn. Your moment to reach Valhalla. Your chance to become a legend.
