For visitors and spectators, designated parking areas will be set up at convenient spots away from the main racecourse. Shuttle services will run regularly from parking lots to the race event site to ease congestion and ensure smooth transportation. Handicapped parking spaces will be available close to the event entrance. Overnight parking restrictions may apply in certain nearby areas, so visitors are encouraged to use the designated parking facilities.
The mountain slalom race will take place on Saturday and Sunday. It's important to note that the closure will affect the stretch of road between the sports field in Steinbach and 200 meters before Rennsteig (Glasbachstein).
