The Kaiserkrone Skyrace starts at the Musikpavillon in Scheffau, passes the Rehbachklamm and climbs to Sonneck (about 2.200 m). It includes narrow, rocky trails and rope-secured sections with steep gains of about 800 vertical metres in roughly 2 km; helmets are mandatory in some sections and the route is intended for very experienced participants.
The Kaiserkrone Ultra circumnavigates the Wilder Kaiser with long climbs including the Stripsenjochhaus (1.575 m) and a highest point around 1.704 m, and descends toward Hintersteinersee.
