Michael Tritscher Run

The run starts at the old sawmill at "Schwaigerweg" road and has a length of 18 kilometers with an elevation gain of 235 m. The run takes you to the valley head of Obertal valley in Hopfriesen and back.

The Michael Tritscher Run is among the longest running routes in Rohrmoos and is almost the same as the hike called Miners' Tour. Most part of the tour takes you across meadow and gravel trail surfaces, about one fifth is paved road.

The route is named after Alpine skier Michael Tritscher of Rohrmoos, who won 3 races in the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup and finished second in the 1995 Slalom World Cup. The greatest success of his career is the bronze medal at the 1992 Olympic World Winter Games in Albertville.
