XLETIX Challenge in Silz, Austria. 3 events on Saturday, June 26, 2027.
XLETIX Challenge Tirol Innsbruck is the highest obstacle race in Europe, staged at the Weltcupsport arena in Kühtai in the Austrian Tyrol. The course tops out at 2,020 m and packs in around 1,300 m of vertical gain, so the climbs matter as much as the obstacles. Wonder Wall 3.0, the 4.5 m Power Pipe and the 4.5 m Slippery Slope are all on the route, set against untouched alpine scenery.
FUN covers 6 km with 15 obstacles, ADVENTURE 12 km with 25, and X-TREME 18 km with 35 — but at this altitude and gradient, every distance runs harder than its number suggests. Innsbruck is about 45 minutes away and is the natural base for the weekend.
