Let's go - Trail running on the Streif
The starting point of the trail running route is the valley station of the Hahnenkammbahn cable car. This is approximately a 30-minute drive from the hotel. At the beginning, you'll have to follow the paved road into the Hausbergtal for a short stretch, but after a short while, you'll reach the turnoff towards Streif.
Now it gets steep!
You'll reach the Seidlalm, but continue past the Seidlalm, past the Brückenschuss and the steep slope until you're below the Mausefalle. You'll have to go around it! Here, follow a short loop to the right. From here, the trail continues to the starting slope of the Streif.
The descent is just like the ascent. If you want to save your legs, you can also take the gondola back down to the valley!
Did you know that this route also has to be conquered in the Vertical Up? Here, the athletes have to reach the finish line as quickly as possible, and the cool thing is, it's up to them how. That means some use touring skis, others prefer to walk, and some even arrive by bike.
PS: If you've decided to walk down the Streif, a stop at the Seidlalm is definitely worth it!
