The Kaiserkrone Ultra circumnavigates the Wilder Kaiser with steep ascents and panoramic sections, reaching high points above 1,700 m and passing the Hintersteinersee on the descent to the finish. The Panorama Trail covers about 30 km with roughly 1,400 m of ascent in its first half and technical but partly runnable sections. The Skyrace starts at the Musikpavillon in Scheffau and climbs to the Sonneck at about 2,200 m, including narrow, rocky trails and rope-secured passages; helmets are required in some sections and the route is for very experienced participants. The Medium and Short routes provide progressively shorter alpine courses with varied technical demands. Multiple children’s races run on shorter circuits in mid elevation.
