The race track for 36th edition of the König Ludwig Lauf at the 2nd and 3rd of February 2008 is now fixed. The warm weather period since the beginning of january with temperatures up to 15°C and the warm storm (Föhn) makes it impossible to use the original track. Since two weeks intensive work on a shortened track is running. This track is now in good condition.
The length of the track will be 21 km and 42 km. The 42 km will be done in a double loop. The start will be in Ettal and the finish in Oberammergau Sportstadium as usual. The course will be nearly the same as last year.
The original time table is valid without changes. The nightsprint with all stars will be at 7.00 p.m. on Saturday evening at Oberammergau Sportstadium.
You may also download the new course map as a PDF file (600 KB).
