Photo production covering the first edition of the trail running festival in June 2026. The first Hochkönig race run under the Ultraks name. The challenge was capturing both the scale of a debut event, 2,200 runners from 47 nations, and the individual moments that define race day. Moving fast on foot and with the bike across a course with thousands of vertical meters meant reaching positions off the main access roads and being there as the moment happened.
