This special hiking challenge already begins extremely. It starts exactly at the witching hour in the night from 7 to 8 January 2023 in the middle of the Kurpark in Velden. Without stopping, it goes actively through the night until the first, longed for, refreshment station with warm food and drinks awaits you at the Karawankenblick restaurant on the descent from the Pyramidenkogel. From there, it's fast on to Klagenfurt for the second breakfast. On the further route there are warm-up and refreshment stations at Gut Draßing in Krumpendorf and at Thadäushof in Sekull. When you reach the Kurpark in Velden again, you know 100% that you are a Wörthersee Extreme Finisher.
