19991 Schnalstal Val Senales Alpine Trail

19991?
Nineteen. Nine. Nine. One. No, we're not talking about the average metres of altitude that Dani Jung manages to climb each week. Rather, it refers to the day Ötzi was found. Ötzi? You know: the man from Tisenjoch, the man from the ice, the mummy from Similaun, probably the most famous glacier mummy since the Copper Age. But even more importantly, that very same 19.9.91 is now also the namesake for one of the most challenging trail running events in the racing calendar. Allow me: The Schnalstal Alpine Trail!

The home of the SAT is the breathtaking Schnalstal Valley, or ‘Val Senales’ in Italian, in beautiful South Tyrol. The area has served as a film set for famous Hollywood productions, such as ‘Everest’, and really offers everything that fans of technical and alpine trail running can appreciate. And it is precisely this high alpine terrain that you can look forward to at the SAT. Challenging trails at breathtaking heights, past the site where Ötzi was found, steep climbs, technical downhills, incredible panoramas and routes that demand everything from the participants, but will be so satisfying for precisely that reason.
