UP THE HILL

About this event

UP THE HILL in Albstadt takes runners into the heart of the Swabian Alb, where steep limestone escarpments meet flowing singletrack. Held in late April, the event offers four distances to suit all levels: a gentle 4km taster with 159 metres of climbing, a scenic 10km gaining 385 metres, a challenging 26km with 1,241 metres of elevation, and a demanding 50km route that tackles 2,122 metres of ascent. The longer courses climb the region's steepest slopes before following the dramatic Albtrauf cliff edges, revealing why this corner of southern Germany has quietly become a trail running favourite. First-timers and experienced runners alike find their match here.
