Trollhättan City Trail 2026
Trollhättan
A trail race in central Trollhättan that started in 2016. Starting from Folkets Park, we head south via Hansenplatsen, following the river channel along winding trails and challenging stair sections to the lowest lock. From there, we turn back towards Hansenplatsen and continue through the city to Folkets Park, where the finish line awaits.
Along the way, we pass attractions such as Kopparklinten, Gamle Dal, several locks, Olidan and Kungsgrottan. So lace up your trail shoes and discover new trails in Trollhättan City Trail! Enjoy beautiful nature and challenging, pulse-raising terrain.
New this year is that the event has its own date outside Trollhättan Action Week, and we have expanded the event with several different distances.
Trollhättan Mini Trail (children's race)
Trollhättan Mini Trail is the race for the little ones, aged 0–12. Approximately 0.8 km. No timing, no competition, no pressure.
Trollhättan City Trail – Light. 8.5 km
This year we are offering an easier route that takes you from Folkets Park towards Hansenplatsen, with a simpler loop before returning to Folkets Park. Walk, jog or run – everyone can take part!
Trollhättan City Trail – Original. 14 km
The same route as the original course, with the difference that both the start and finish are at Folkets Park, making the total distance slightly longer.
Trollhättan City Trail – Half Marathon+. 22.5 km
This year, a longer course is available that builds on the character of the original route. At the locks, the course heads onto an additional loop on the other side of the canal, where even more small, technical trails await. The terrain remains varied and hilly, with sections of stairs and the occasional gravel or asphalt stretch. A challenging experience close to nature!
Trollhättan City Trail – Bring Your Dog!
This year, together with MIMsafe, we are also offering dedicated starting groups for running with dogs!
Both the shorter 8.5 km course and the 14 km course can be completed with a dog on a leash. There will be a separate starting group after the other participants have set off. Those who prefer to walk can choose the shorter 8.5 km course and decide for themselves whether to walk, jog or run. For those looking for more of a challenge with their dog, the 14 km course offers a longer and more demanding option.
