Red Bull X-Alps 2023 is on!

At exactly 11:30 this morning, the town center of Kitzbühel echoed to the blast of a start gun, signaling the start of the world’s toughest adventure race – the Red Bull X-Alps. The first Turnpoint was the 1,660m Hahnenkamm, the start of the legendary downhill ski race the Streif. In contrast to the skiers, the athletes ran up the famous course. The first athlete to reach it was Lenart Oblak (SLO), speed hiking up in 50 minutes. He was quickly followed by Jordi Vilalta (ESP) and Aaron Durogati (ITA2).
