Hochfügen Hightrails Festival

The Hochfügen Hightrails Festival brings together recreational and professional trail runners in the Tux Alps around Hochfügen. The one-day festival on 9 August 2026 comprises three races — the HightrailRun (Gilfert‑Runde), the FunRun (4‑Almen‑Lauf) and a KidsRun — and the HightrailRun serves as the official Österreichische Meisterschaft im Trail Classic for 2026. The event is staged on mountain trails with downloadable GPX/PDF routes, interactive maps with checkpoints and refreshment stations, and a clear kit policy for longer races.

Environmental sustainability is a core feature: the festival is recognised as a GREEN EVENT TIROL with measures such as reusable cups, regional suppliers and encouragement of green travel options (train/bus discounts and a local car‑share board). Practical participant information available on the event site includes online registration deadlines, on‑site/late registration windows and designated bib pickup times at TVB Fügen. The festival also offers team and children’s formats, mountain views from the Gilfert loop and an awards ceremony in the afternoon.
