There are courses that follow a dramaturgy, similar to a good screenplay, a symphony or a play.
The Zlaimwiese (at Grundlsee), one of the two courses run by the BSC Salzkammergut, is definitely one of them for me. It starts off rather unspectacularly, but then, out of nowhere, the 10-meter crocodile hits you for the first time.
A descent of unfathomable drama, the kind only rare terrain formations allow. Once the initial adrenaline rush has passed, they lull you back to sleep until the stress level slowly, mercilessly, and steadily increases to luminous heights. Elk through the tree trellis at a fairly long distance, wild boar (just after the wimpy turnoff) even further downhill than the elk... only to finally crash into the rock, which delivers such a perversely erotic double shot at lynx and spider that by this point, at the latest, your body, marked by the adrenaline overflow, is screaming, "I WANT OUT OF HERE!"
Well, it's not out of here yet, and so you drag yourself on, half-lobotomized, until at 29 a really long walk-up grizzly grabs you by the balls and throws the most pitying grin he's capable of at you from above.
In short, nothing special overall, but overall simply EPIC!
