Trailrunning – Run free

From the valley floor up to the mountain peaks

Just you and nature. Run as far as your feet will take you and breathe fresh mountain air. That's why you're a trail runner. And that's why you'll be happy with us. You'll find trails from flat to hilly and alpine - across meadows, through forests, over bridges and streams, past mountain lakes and up to the peaks.

TRAIL RUNNING - THE WAY IS THE GOAL

Run, Forest, run

As a trail runner, you prefer to run over hill and dale. Or meadows and fields, sometimes even through forests. You don't really need mountains for that, because trail running is not mountain running. You can live out your passion anywhere. The main thing is that your feet feel the natural ground. The most important thing is exercise, health, nature and the running experience. Walking in between is also okay - after all, it's your path.
