This year’s Internationaler Achenseelauf on 2 and 3 September 2017 will once again bring together ambitious amateurs and professional runners for Austria’s most beautiful running event. Around 1,500 will take to the trails at this mass-start event, including many stars of the international running scene.

The Internationaler Achenseelauf begins at 10:00 at the car park of the Karwendel-Bergbahn cable car in Pertisau. The fastest runners complete the 23.2km course in around 1 hour and 15 minutes. One of the most exciting races is set to be the relay race comprising two parts (9km and 14.2km) to be completed by two runners.

The course starts in Pertisau and takes in the villages of Maurach and Achenkirch as well as the challenging Marien- und Gaisalmsteig trail all the way back to Pertisau. Runners can look forward to 23.2km of fabulous views and changing terrain.
