Eisstockhütte des ESV Wagendorf, Wagendorf, Oststeiermark, Austria
ABU Wagendorf/Oststeiermark 2026 (Austria Backyard Ultra) is an open-ended Backyard Ultra held on a looped trail course in Wagendorf, Oststeiermark, Austria. The event follows the official Backyard Ultra format: all competitors start a 6.706 km loop every hour and must complete the loop within the hour or be eliminated, and the race continues until only one runner remains. The Wagendorf edition combines day and dedicated night loops, festival-style programming with live music, and a team challenge for three-person teams, creating a social atmosphere alongside the competitive format.
The event is based at the Eisstockhütte of ESV Wagendorf with parking and nearby shower/changing facilities and offers GPX downloads for both the day and night routes. Practical features emphasised by the organisers include a mandatory headlamp and high-visibility vest for night running, a BE SAFE €5 cancellation option, tiered online pricing with on-site entry if places remain, and a 200-participant cap. Participants should note the organiser’s liability disclaimer and the requirement to follow public road rules where the course uses open roads.
