Despite being the 2nd shortest distance at the Swiss Alps 100, the 50KM course should not been underestimated. With a total elevation gain of 3'310m (10,860 feet) you will certainly be tested along the course. What will keep you going are the incredible views like running along the Aletsch Glacier, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage, and traversing over the 160 meter (524 feet) Aspi-Titter suspension bridge and the 280 meter (918 feet) suspension bridge Mühlebach-Fürgangen
.
