Comments

April 21, 2024,Berglaufstrecke zum Pleß

Mountain course of the Thuringian state championship in mountain running. Around 400m of elevation must be completed. In 2024, the state champion needed around 29:45min, if you want to try it out yourself.
This is also the route for cyclists to the Pless-Bike, here the leaders need less than 21min to get to the Pleß!
