Trail running on the Danube
===========================

Trail running is running at your own pace, where you can easily discover a new area and new running routes. It's about being active in nature and it doesn't necessarily always have to be in the mountains. Running at lower altitudes such as the Danube region is ideal, especially for pre-season preparation or for beginners! Each stage on the Donausteig takes us further away from the stress of everyday life as we approach our training goal step by step.
