Burghausen (Germany), Sunday 8 October 2017
The Salzach Brückenlauf ("Salzach Bridge Run") is one of our top recommendations for running in Central Europe.
The route takes the runners through the medieval town centre of Burghausen in Bayern, Germany, across the border into Austria, along the Salzach river, and around a beautiful lake at the foot of the world's longest castle.
