NEW 2023: the Geigerman
If just paragliding down is not enough for you, the new relay triathlon “Geigerman" is just the thing! In this competition, paragliding is spiced up with trail running and mountain biking, in full length: the runner starts in the valley, hands over to the flyer on the Medrigalm, who sends off the mountain biker in the valley, who then finishes the race on the Medrigalm. A total prize money of 3,000 Euros awaits the best teams and individuals!
A colourful supporting programme around the tandem flights and the Geigerman will be provided by a children's programme and culinary delights on the Medrigalm as well as an after-competition party on Saturday.
