itinerary

Day 1 - Individual arrival in Sarmingstein, Sarmingstein-Bad Kreuzen stage approx. 18.6 km, running time approx. 3 hours
Arrival for your trail running holiday in Austria. Luggage for your trail running tour on the Donausteig should be dropped off at the hotel in Sarmingstein, the starting point for this enjoyable run, by 9 am at the latest. The historic Danube town lies in the steep Danube valley of the Strundengau at the mouth of the Sarmingbach stream into the Danube. After the first conquered stage of the Donausteig, relax in the spacious wellness area of your hotel.
Hotel example: Wellness Oasis Aumühle**** in Bad Kreuzen

Day 2 - Bad Kreuzen-Grein Stage approx. 16.6 km, running time approx. 2.5 hours
Today, the summit assault on the Wetzlstein - one of the seven Donausteig summits - is on the programme of your trail run in Upper Austria! On this panoramic stage of the Donausteig you run through the varied hilly landscape of the Aist-Naarn-Kuppenland. The trail in Machland leads over the Wetzlstein to Bad Kreuzen and down to Grein an der Donau. Explore the Wolfsschlucht gorge - once used as a natural spa facility with its natural showers and bathing pools -, recharge your batteries and then continue your walk. Hotel example: Hotel-Gasthof Zur Traube*** in Grein

Day 3 - Grein-Sarmingstein stage approx. 16.2 km, walking time approx. 2.5 hours, individual journey home
Your running stage on the Donausteig today takes you through the beautiful Donaukerbtal valley of the Strudengau. Once feared by sailors because of its treacherous whirlpools, you run through this exciting piece of Danube history from Grein via St. Nikola to Sarmingstein. In the legendary Stillensteinklamm gorge, you walk partly on natural paths, partly on climbing paths, past rushing cascades, moss-covered granite formations, small reservoirs and through the overhanging rock, the so-called Steinerne Stube. There is a lot to discover on this tour in the Danube valley: the charming little town of Grein as the gateway to the Strudengau, the most dangerous water eddies of the entire Danube course or Säbnich Castle as a bulwark in the east. Luggage return in Sarmingstein by 5.30 pm at the latest.
