Route of the Resia Lake’s race

Spectacular course for the 25th anniversary

To celebrate the anniversary, the night run will start in the road tunnel in Graun, as it did in 2019. The entire route will be illuminated by around 2,000 torches. The first section of the route follows the main road for approx. 2 km and then turns into the new route on the embankment zone. After three kilometers south towards St. Valentin at the end of the reservoir, the dam wall is crossed and a slightly hilly and partly shady section follows on the opposite side towards the valley station of the Schöneben ski area. The route continues to Reschen, where the participants run the last flat kilometers, mostly on gravel. The spectacular finish leads through the tent, past the rows of spectators to the finish line.

• The start is in Graun at the well-known church tower in the lake, at 1,450 m above the sea level.
• The first section of the trail is flat and runs south for about 5 km towards St. Valentin.
• Nature lovers can enjoy the beautiful view of the highest mountain in South Tyrol, the Ortler (3,905 m), again and again on the way south.
• Then you cross the dam wall and on the opposite side there is a slightly hilly and partly shady section towards the valley station of the Schöneben ski area up to kilometre 11.
• The route continues to the harbour facility in Reschen.
• On the last flat kilometres, the participants run mostly on gravel and can look forward to a direct view of Lake Resia.
• In the background, the church tower shines in the water.
• The spectacular finish leads past the audience to the finish.
