LANDSCAPES FOR RUNNERS

The lovely village of Längenfeld is situated at 1173m above sea level, in the center of a 20km-long basin. The area boasts a network of 110 km of signposted running trails for all levels and abilities.

Runners can even try to conquer marathon distances if they choose the right tracks. As the high-altitude location has many positive effects on the body’s endurance a healthy training unit is guaranteed.

Trails and paths for runners vary from easy and intermediate to very challenging. Meadows, fields and forests down in the valley or up in the mountains, scenic landscapes surrounded by the majestic peaks of the Ötztal and Stubai Alps which are higher than 3000 meters. Trails with almost no elevation gain. Gently rising paths. Steep routes. The choice is all yours!

Ambitious sportsmen can take full advantage of the high Alpine location. The slightly rising forest trail from Gries – towering above Längenfeld at 1600m above sea level – to lovely Sulztal mountain hut at 1898m ranks among the region’s highlights.
