Wien Rundumadum 130km: Vienna's City Loop Ultra — 25 Hours Around the Austrian Capital
Wien Rundumadum 130 km is a loop ultra tracing the official Rundumadum trail around the entire city of Vienna, Austria, starting at 05:30 on November 7, 2026, from Sportcenter Donaucity. The course follows 24 stages through Vienna's greenbelt — forests, hills, vineyards, canals, and parks — covering 130 km with 1,880 m of gain (14.5 m/km).
Distance-weighted average gradients are 8.1% uphill and 6.9% downhill; only 2 km sits above 20% incline. Entry costs €130 base (€150 from June 6) plus a mandatory GPS tracker rental of €15 cash at check-in — €1.00/km at the base rate. Vienna VIE is 23 minutes away. A 25-hour time limit, all 24 stage checkpoints accessible by public transport, and a relay option (2–6 runners) make this the most logistically forgiving 130km in Europe. Not sold out. Founded 2014 by Verein Mehrkampf Team Austria; 48 finishers 2025.

How Hard Is the Wien Rundumadum 130km? (14.5 m/km, 8% Average Gradient, and Why That's the Point)
How Hard Is the Wien Rundumadum 130km?▼
Moderate by 130km ultra standards. The course covers 130km with only 1,880m gain (~14.5m/km), 45% flat terrain, and barely 2km above 20% gradient. The biggest climb rises 325m over 8.13km at 4.0% average. Distance-weighted gradients are 8.14% uphill and 6.92% downhill. The challenge is sustained effort, November overnight conditions (near-freezing, foggy), and 25 hours of cumulative fatigue — not technical mountain terrain.
