🌲 Run for Forest – A Sponsored Running Event for the Forest!
🌱 What is a Sponsored Running Event?
A sponsored running event is a sporting event where children, teenagers, and adults run laps for a good cause. For each completed lap, previously recruited sponsors (e.g., parents, relatives, businesses) donate a set amount. In this way, every step quite literally becomes a contribution to the forest and the climate!
The “Run for Forest” combines athletic commitment with environmental protection – all proceeds go directly to the local reforestation project of the association Wald & Klima Ursern.
🗓 Program 2025 - DETAILS FOR 2026 COMING SOON!

Getting There:
To make your day in Hospental as relaxed as possible before and after the sponsored run, we recommend traveling with the Matterhorn Gotthard Railway. This way, you can travel comfortably, safely, and stress-free – no need to search for parking or take a long drive by car.
Schedule:
- Each participant will receive a goodie bag.
- You can start at any time during the two-hour event!
- There are two well-marked courses:
