Description

Short, intense, and demanding: this sprint requires full energy from the very first step. It's a direct, steady climb – a tough ascent that demands fitness, speed, and stamina in equal measure. Whether as a “warm-up trail” for the Höhenweg Trophy on Saturday or as a standalone main competition, the start is at the Markbachjoch cable car valley station, from where the route leads directly along the gondola lift up to the finish at the Rübezahl hut.
