78. Int. Wiener Höhenstraßenlauf

The Hoehenstrasse Run, held annually near the picturesque town of Salzburg, Austria, offers runners an unforgettable journey through some of Europe's most stunning Alpine landscapes. This race is not just about crossing the finish line but immersing oneself in a scenic and challenging course that winds its way along historic paths.
Participants start from the charming village of Strobl at dawn, greeted by crisp mountain air and panoramic views stretching across lush valleys. The route takes runners through quaint Austrian villages, past pristine lakes, and up into the foothills where wildflowers dot the landscape in a riotous display of color during summer months. As they ascend, the path becomes increasingly steep, testing both physical endurance and mental fortitude.
The highlight of the race is its ascent to the Hoehenstrasse Pass at an elevation of 1200 meters above sea level. Here, runners are rewarded with breathtaking vistas that stretch for miles in all directions, showcasing snow-capped peaks and verdant valleys below. The descent back towards Strobl offers a mix of technical terrain and thrilling downhill runs through dense forests.
The Hoehenstrasse Run is more than just a race; it's an experience that combines the thrill of competition with the joy of exploring one of Austria’s most beautiful regions. With its challenging course, stunning scenery, and warm Austrian hospitality, this event promises to leave every participant with memories they will cherish for years to come.
