The 2026 UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships in Hulst, Netherlands, brings the world's elite to the historic "Vestingscross" course for the first time in championship history. Utilizing the city’s 17th-century fortifications, the 3.24-kilometer circuit features grueling climbs up ancient ramparts, technical bridges, and a signature 22-stair section. As the 77th edition, this event serves as the season’s pinnacle, where riders battle for rainbow jerseys amidst the atmospheric, wind-swept landscapes of Zeeuws-Vlaanderen.
