Due to the forest fire in the spring, the first part of the route runs along a path and then on the cycle path to the Stilfserbrücke. After the climb to the village of Stelvio, the route continues as usual.
Course description
The 21 km route of the Stelvio Trail Run starts in Prad am Stilfserjoch and leads over the "Schmelz" and the cycling path to Stilfserbrücke first to Stilfs. You can get to the rustic mountain village after a short time. This is known for the steepness of its streets. These also lead us to the exit of the village in the direction of Platzhof, not far from the picturesque St. Martin church. Here, the runner already has a first clear view of King Ortler and his companions.
The route from the Platzhof takes us alternately on narrow forest paths and wide gravel paths and ensures a constant change of rhythm. On this section, the runner can also get a glimpse of some wild animals that cavort in the wildlife enclosure Fragges or in the free environment. Soon we come to a long ridge on the slopes of which there is the Prader Alm and the mountain station of the Trafoier chairlift, the Furkelhütte. From there the route changes to a high alpine hiking trail, the Goldseeweg.
The view of the Ortler group is now a constant companion of the runner. This year's route does not lead down to the Tartscher Alm and the pass road, but stays on the narrow mountain path that leads directly to the destination on the Stilfserjoch.
