The Stiegl trucks that bring the garment bags to the finish area are located on the grounds of the Agricultural College Bruck near the race office.

Light participants can drop off their garment bags at the cashier's office in Ferleiten, at 7:00 a.m. a Stiegl truck will stop there and collect the bags.
It is best to pack a dry and warm change of clothes and a backpack (to carry your race clothes down to the valley) in your garment bag.
Remember to bring windbreakers, hats and gloves even if the weather is fine, as cold temperatures are to be expected in the high mountains (especially on the descent).
Please do not put any valuables in the garment bags. The organizer assumes no liability for the contents.

Our partner SPORT 2000 Simon drives behind the last participant with a breakdown van.
Thus, minor repairs can be carried out directly on site.
Required spare parts have to be paid by yourself.
Already before the crossing to the Edelweißspitze both goals are well marked. Go straight to the Fuscher Törl, turn left for the Edelweißspitze.
Directly at the crossroads there are additional marshals who will send you to the right destination based on your start number.
Should it happen that you finish in the wrong place, your time will not be counted.
