Recce run: Gaisbergtrail

Our October Long Run is a Salzburg classic! If you're preparing for the Salzburg Trail Running Festival at the end of the month, you should definitely take part in this exploratory run for the main event of the festival.

The course first goes up and over the Kapuzinerberg, then through Parsch and onto the Kühberg. It continues up the Gaisberg to the well-known circular route and finally over 20 serpentines up to the summit.

From there it goes down on beautiful single trails almost to the Zistelalm, before it goes back into the forest and downhill to the Gamsweg. We run down to the campsite in Aigen before crossing the river and coming to Hellbrunner Allee. Now it's on to the home stretch, but there's still a small climb up to the Nonnberg Abbey before the final sprint to the finish line at Kapitelplatz.
