Cycling, ski touring, mountaineering - the second edition of the Dachstein Rush combines the most beautiful sports of the Dachstein Salzkammergut holiday region into a unique event. It's not the fight for seconds that counts, but camaraderie and the shared experience in nature. Nevertheless, it is hard.** The Dachstein Rush will take place again this year on the Krippenstein. Not to run according to the stopwatch, but to have a common experience on the mountain. Bike, trail run and ski tour to the Dachstein --------------------------------------------- The starting signal will be given on August 27. Just a few minutes after sunrise, **endurance athletes from all over Europe** will set out on the **150-kilometre bike course** from **Bad Schallerbach to Obertraun at Dachstein**. The route leads from the Upper Austrian town to the Salzkammergut - always along the Traun and past the picturesque **Lake Traunsee, to the Lake Attersee and the Lake Hallstatt**. In **Obertraun**, after a short rest in the garden of the Höllwirt, the **field changes from the bikes to the running shoes** and sets off on the first part of the route **to the Dachstein Krippenstein**. From the snow line, it continues on touring skis. In total there are about **1 600 metres in altitude** difference to the first stage destination, the **Simony hut at 2 200 m**. This is also where the athletes spend the night. The way to the summit of the Dachstein ----------------------------------------- The next day the second stage starts with the **declared goal, the summit of the highest mountain in Upper Austria, the Dachstein**. Secured by **state-certified mountain guides**, we cross the eternal ice. The highlight after a short climbing passage is the **2 995-meter-high summit of the Dachstein**. After a short **break at the summit and a brief "enjoyment" of the unique view**, the tour returns to the top station of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car, which takes extreme sportsmen and women back to the Obertraun valley.
