The new trail running event in the Arlberg region

Arlberg Ultra is the new trail running event in the Arlberg region, organised jointly by Lech Zürs and St. Anton am Arlberg. The finish location alternates between the two destinations every two years – the first edition will take place from 20 to 22 August 2027.

Where stunning mountain scenery, unspoilt nature and a real challenge come together, a running experience of a very special kind unfolds: the route follows almost exclusively natural trails, right in the heart of the Arlberg’s alpine landscape. The start and finish are situated right in the mountains, nestled amidst idyllic natural surroundings.

The Arlberg Ultra offers routes to suit a range of fitness levels. If you’re looking for spectacular views, varied trails and an authentic mountain experience, you’ll find your next adventure here.
