Heiligenblut am Grossglockner (Austria) - "Grossglockner Mountain Run". The selective route (13,3 km / 1300 elevation gain) of the famous Grossglockner Mountain Run leads through all alpine vegetation sections. After the start in Heiligenblut the run follows the river. After passing the alpine mountain huts a first highlight is the famous Briccius chapel. After passing the "Trogalm" the athlets enter the area of the Nationalpark Hohe Tauern. The "Pasterze", the longest glacier in the Eastern Alps is the next highlight. The final climb of 900 meters challenges the competitors, but the stunning Grossglockner view, and the cheering crowd at the finish lines excuse anything. www.grossglockner-mountainrun.at
