Innsbruck Alpine Trail Festival

About This Event

The Innsbruck Alpine Trail Festival marks the official start of the trail running season each spring in the heart of the Austrian Alps. This multi-day celebration brings together runners, brands, and the broader trail community for what organizers call the "Trail Season Kick-Off." The festival offers an exceptional range of distances from short technical challenges to ultra-distance tests, all set against the dramatic backdrop of Innsbruck and the surrounding Tyrolean mountains. The event caters to every level of runner, from those seeking their first trail experience to seasoned ultra-runners pushing their limits. Several races feature sold-out status, indicating the festival's popularity among the European trail running community. The centerpiece Trail Hunt operates as an elite pursuit-format race with a €30,000 prize purse, while specialized events like the Business Trail encourage team participation and the Young Talents Race develops the next generation of trail runners.
