Sauwald TRAIL

The Sauwald TRAIL offers runners three trail options starting from the same location in Schardenberg, Upper Austria: the 13k Kösslbach Trail, the 25k 3 Berg Trail, and the 46k Sauwald Trail. The race takes place in late June, with both the start and finish at Sportplatz Union Schardenberg. Consequently, the event centers around a local sports field instead of a point-to-point course. The event structure caters to runners seeking varied commitment levels within the same trail running weekend, from the shorter 13k distance to the extensive 46k challenge. The race is supported by La Sportiva and is listed on Austrian running platforms like MaxFun Sports, indicating a well-established trail race. Markus Mingo of the xc-run.de team highlighted it as an event with a positive atmosphere, noting it was the sole trail race he attended three consecutive times over 15 years of trail running.
