The short 30 km route of the Kahler Asten Trail Marathon starts at the Schützenhalle and leads briefly uphill via Herhagen into the Nordenau valley. This is followed by a steep ascent through the Astenberg ski area. After a few descents, the route climbs uphill again over beautiful trails to the Wesenberg. After a steep trail descent, which takes us to the lowest point of the route, there is another long ascent almost as far as Astenberg. Now it's time to gather strength for the steep final ascent, which is paved for the last 400 meters, on a long descent, which is interrupted by a beautiful trail.
