The story

Innsbruck Alpine Trailrun Festival in Innsbruck

A multi-day trail running festival launching from Innsbruck's historic Old Town, with routes climbing into the surrounding Alps — including the Nordkette, Patscherkofel and Axamer Lizum — across distances from short fun runs to ultramarathons exceeding a hundred kilometers and five thousand meters of elevation gain.

Distances at this Innsbruck running festival span from a short business-crowd fun run to ultramarathons pushing past a hundred kilometers and five thousand meters of climbing, all launching from the same historic Old Town start line.

02

The mystery stays covered

The festival spans the full range from a short business-oriented fun run to ultra-distances beyond a hundred kilometers with five thousand meters of climbing within one multi-day event, and is widely described as the largest trail-running festival in the German-speaking DACH region, starting and finishing from Innsbruck's historic Old Town rather than a remote trailhead
