Running and Walking in Kitzbühel.
The unique environment of the Schwarzsee lake with the surrounding hilly landscapes of Bichlach form a focal point, as does the magnificent area along the Kitzbühel Ache river and the newly designed Jochberg running region in the South of Kitzbühel. Mountain running trails on the famous Hahnenkamm ski peak and the Kitzbüheler Horn complete this range of quality trails. From beginners, through to ambitious athletes, everybody who is keen on exercise will really get their money’s worth.
The routes in KITZBÜHEL and JOCHBERG meet the „Laufland Tirol“ requirements
of the Tirolean Provincial Government and Tirol Marketing. This guarantees high-
quality routes that are selected, checked, signed and appropriately classified by experts.

So everyone can find their ideal route without any hassle, routes for running, mountain running and
Nordic Walking are provided using the ‘Laufland Tirol’ guide system. This own developed 2-board sy-
stem consists of Direction and Distance boards, providing information about directions, route lengths,
the difficulty of routes and the exact kilometres run in the sections. This means that each runner, or
Nordic Walker, can, for instance, check straight away that they are keeping to their individual speed and
heart rate limits as determined in medical check-ups.

Route: The Schwarzsee-Runde starts from the car park heading east along the lake, at first on tarmac, then soon on gravel meadow and forest trails. After around 1 km you get to the Kitzbühel foReSt mile, where there are various drills to add a bit of variety to your training. Shortly after this the path then goes directly along the water, partly on boardwalks and partly on gravel paths through superb moor and lake side areas. You get back to the starting point along the west bank and over an adjacent hill.

Route: Up the north bank of Lake Schwarzsee the route runs parallel to the Schwarzsee-Runde, but then heads east towards the Steuerberg, which you get to via a steep forest track which has a few switchbacks. Following the flat ridges of the Steuerberg the path heads down to the Vogelsberg pond and from there further on to the Gieringer pond, where you can bathe in the summer (‘Waldbad Gieringer Weiher’ – dogs are allowed here!). After a brief climb to the hamlet of Giering the route goes down to Münichau and from there back to the starting point at Lake Schwarzsee.

Route: This very diverse circuit starts at Lake Schwarzsee heading north and at first goes through the hilly landscape of Bichlach, where there are several hills of differing steepness to be conquered - all of which have the impressive Wilder Kaiser mountain range in sight. After a brief, steep descent the route traverses the Reither Ache and goes, with not much change in altitude, over wonderful forest and meadow paths, through Reith and back to the starting point.

Route: From Pfarrau car park the circuit starts flat heading west to Lake Schwarzsee. At the train station at Schwarzsee the route crosses the train line and the main road, always keeping to the forest and at the edge of the forest, undulating in an easterly direction. You reach a brief steep part on the open meadows at the lift for the legendary Streif ski run, which you cross in an easterly direction. Further on this goes down to the Hahnenkamm Cable-Car valley station and the last part is parallel to the town circuit back to the starting point.

The ITU World Triathlon Series has been taking place in Kitzbühel for the last few years. This places the legendary city of sport in the same league as big cities and Olympic host cities such as Sydney, San Diego, Madrid, London, Hamburg and Tokio|Yokohama. 2014 Kitzbühel will be hosting the ETU Triathlon European Championships.
Triathlon in Kitzbühel.
The Kitzbühel-Triathlon is one of the most beautiful and popular
competitions on the tour among athletes. The gently rolling natural
landscapes, the soothing moorland Schwarzsee lake and the magni-
ficent running trails all play a part.
13 : :
In addition to the professional runners, some 1000 amateur athletes from all over Europe also take
part in the sprint distance (750 m swimming, 20 km cycling, 5 km running) and in the Olympic short
distance (1.5 km – 40 km – 10 km).

The climb up to the Kitzbüheler Horn is the steepest of its kind in Austria. The panoramic street is one of the most difficult sports mountain trails in the world. The extreme gradient of up to 22.3% in places, paired with the sun-drenched location, make this an extraordinary climb. Although the length (7.5 km) and altitude difference (920 m) of the road to the Alpenhaus fall below those of the famous Tour-de-France mountains. Those succeeding in following the route all the way to the peak of the Kitzbüheler Horn will hardly find another road in the Alps comparable to the ‚Horn‘.

Route: along the tarmaced (toll) road the route keeps going up, in countless curves and sweeps to Kitzbühel’s landmark mountain. Athletes have pitted themselves against one another in many legendary races on foot and by bike on this demanding mountain route. After 7 km you get to Alpenhaus, the finish for lots of these races. For those of you who haven’t had enough yet, you ride or run further – up to the summit at an altitude of 1.996 m. You get back into the valley from both finish points with the Hornbahn Cable-Car (open from mid-May until the start of October).

The Kitzbüheler Horn mountain running race has been taking place at the end of Au-gust since 1979. Stars of the international running scene come together here with am-bitious amateurs. The popular race runs from the main square in Kitzbühel up to the peak of the Kitzbüheler Horn.
The international Kitzbüheler Horn mountain cycle race has been taking place here since 1971 and has seen both national and international greats put their skills to the test including Wolfgang Steinmayr, Helmut Wechselberger, Lucien van Impe (BEL), the Tour-de-France star of the 70s and Beat Breu (SUI), winner of the Alpe d’Huez in 1982.
The race takes place at the start of August each year. After gathering ‘en masse’ in the town centre, the athletes move on to the starting point at the ‘Höglern’ (791 m) and from here, it‘s time to pick up the pace and race up to the Alpenhaus (1.670 m).
Since 2000, the crowning stage of the International Austria Tour race has also taken cy-clists up to the Kitzbüheler Horn. Up to 7,000 spectators gather to welcome the cycling stars at the Alpenhaus with a real sense of tension in the air. Famous winners of the Kitzbüheler Horn cycle race include Georg Totschnig (AUT, 2000), Cadel Evans (AUS, 2001 and 2004) and Thomas Rohregger (AUT, 2007).
How do you measure up against the stars?
One of the most legendary mountain roads in the Alps has been home to a permanent time measurement feature since the Summer of 2009. The distance from the starting point at ‚Höglern‘ (791 m), just above the ‚Römerweg‘, to the Alpenhaus (1.670 m) can be completed in around 30 minutes by world class cyclists and runners. Amateur athletes will need at least 50 minutes. Why not take part in a (pretend) race with friends, acquaintances or the stars and enter the annual Kitzbüheler Horn rankings at the Alpenhaus.

After just a bit more than a kilometre the route is inaccessible to all road users and goes on the very sunny terrain via dreamy country meadows, always with slight gradients until Oberndorf. At the lift car-park, after exactly 5 km there is a turning point. The straight route goes back, whereby there is a wonderful 10.000 m run without any changes in direction of note. The route is also signposted from the other direction, with the start in Oberndorf.

The footpaths are carefully placed within this natural environment and are supervised and maintained by our specialist staff during the mountain Summer.
