The race course
Downhill: The Start is located just below the "Kleines Schilthorn". From here,the course continues through the Engetal to the Schilthorn Hut. Then follows a long drawn-out "S" to just below the Muttlerenhorn, followed by the challenge of the Kanonenrohr. Next comes a further "Double S" and a sharp right curve. The course climbs into woodland, crossing the path of the Maulerhubel chairlift. A slight ascent then leads to Winteregg over the Winteregg Bridge, joining the forest trail in the direction of Lauterbrunnen.
This attractive course can be covered by competent skiers in about 20 minutes. The winner of the Inferno Race takes less than 15 minutes.
Cross-country Inferno-Super-Combination: ca. 6 km long in the Mürren village (three laps of ca. 2 km)
