From Nordic walking to trail running
Running in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena

Running is still among the most popular outdoor sports – no matter the season. Standard jogging, Nordic walking and trailrunning, all of these activities strengthen the cardio-vascular system, clear your mind, and make your body release endorphins. Good news for sports enthusiasts: On the Tyrolean side of the Zugspitze there are multiple running opportunities. 

Running & Walking Trails

Each of the many running and walking routes in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena has its own unique appeal. Some paths wind past crystal-clear mountain lakes and expansive fields, while others lead to a rustic alpine hut. History buffs can even tread the ancient Roman road of the Via Claudia. Whatever route you choose, Nordic walking or jogging on the Tyrolean side of the Zugspitze is always an unforgettable experience.

Trail running around the Zugspitze

Sometimes it’s simply time to leave the beaten path behind. It’s no surprise that more and more runners in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena are venturing off the usual routes. Trail running is becoming especially popular among summer athletes. Secluded trails, soft forest floors, blue lakes, and sweeping vistas—cross-country runs are perfect for experiencing the region at the foot of the Zugspitze from fresh perspectives.
