Stunning, great and spectacular day out, not that there was much running the first 5k or the following 5k and the 5k after that ;) A solid 700m up for the first part, then at around 2000m altitude the old service road was covered in rock falls and some snow and then turned into a dead end track. At the end there was a forestry house/shelter, which we had to climb up and around to get past. Then it was directly down, 250m in not a long distance, as it was a near a sher drop that serpentined it's way down past the concrete and iron snow protection for the village below. Then we hit then main busy path on this mountain, (as Brits would say it was like Blackpool Beach) where we meet 10 hikers and 6 trail runners for the next 3-4km down. Yet there was still another 3km to do before we could have a cooling down dip in the river.
