Gore-Tex Transalpine Run

Alps crossing on new route

As a "normal" mountaineer and hiker you will stuck up your nose hearing about people who are running more than 230 km in 6 days to cross the Alps from the North to the South, managing mountains, passes and valleys.

Fell runnings like the Gore-Tex Transalpine-Run are surely extreme and ask for long preparations. Only the fitness decides if a sportsman can make the run or run. 8 stages with more than 40 km distance and about 2000-2400 m difference in altitude per stage and are to manage during the Gore-Tex Transalpine-Run from September 5th to September 12th 2009!. A special running-experience.

If you look at the distance profile, you will be happy like me, to not have to make this race. But the distance fascinate although. Maybe because record-breaking distances or maybe because of the great mountains the runners have to going through.

All 2009 participants can once again look forward to facing a challenging route, which will lead in eight stages from Germany through Austria and Switzerland down to South Tyrol, Italy

Start in Oberstdorf (GER),Lech am Arlberg (AUT), St. Anton (AUT), Galtür (AUT), Scuol (SUI), Mals im Vinschgau (ITA), Schlanders im Vinschgau (ITA), Latsch im Vinschgau (ITA).
