Pillerseetal Halbmarathon

The Pillerseetal Halbmarathon is a cross-country half marathon of approximately 22 km held annually in Austria’s Pillerseetal on Austrian National Day. It begins in Pillerseetal in the morning, guiding participants around the Buchensteinwand, a prominent local mountain topped by the Jakobskreuz cross overlooking the valley. The course features a mix of paved and maintained paths, avoiding rugged mountain trails, and includes multiple aid stations. The event welcomes recreational runners, dedicated club athletes, and professionals alike. The race emphasizes the shared experience of running through the Pillerseetal landscape as much as achieving fast finish times.
