The course has a figure of eight shape. From the summit station of the Brandstadl 8-seater gondola lift at 1,650 m you run up to the Brandstadlkreuz (trail no. 53). At the next major intersection you run downhill towards the Marchental refreshment stop. Then you come to another fork where you run downhill and then turn right heading towards Hartkaiser. Carry on running and a forest trail appears. Follow this to the next fork and keep to trail no. 11. Run past the Weißbachgraben and the Tanzbodenteich pond back to the gondola station, passing the Tanzbodenalm and the Brandstadl mountain inn.
There is a shorter course for beginners: from the summit station of the Brandstadl 8-seater gondola lift at 1,650 m you run downhill to the Tanzbodenalm and on to the next intersection. Here you turn right and follow the trail to the Brandstadlkreuz. From there you run back to the summit station of the Scheffau 8-seater gondola lift.
