30/60 km Classic Race or Prato Piazza Mountain Challenge!
10.01.2026 - Classic Race (60 km + 30 km Classic Technique)
Both race distances start in the stunning Val Viscalina valley in Sesto, right beneath the breathtaking backdrop of the Sesto Sundial – and from there, it’s full speed through the Dolomites!
The course first leads through San Candido to Dobbiaco, entering the impressive Nordic Arena. Shortly after, the field splits: The 60 km course continues towards Cortina, passing the Three Peaks Viewpoint and Lake Landro, climbing into the Val Fonda up to the turnaround point just before Cimabanche. The 30 km course turns right before reaching Lake Dobbiaco, heading straight to the finish line in Villabassa.
What makes it special: You choose your distance during the race – no need to decide in advance!
