2024 HERO SÜDTIROL DOLOMITES THIRD TRACK FOR MOUNTAIN BIKING HEROES

This third race route joins the classic 86 km and 60 km trails. The organisation offers hospitality packages, and reduced registration fees until 30 September 2023. 

The season’s not done yet but it’s time to get thinking about what 2024 will have in store. There’s big news for next year’s HERO Südtirol Dolomites, one of the world’s toughest mountain bike marathon sitting in the UCI calendar in the prestigious Hors Class category: the iconic 86 km and 60 km trails are now joined by a third 71 km trail boasting 4,100 hm.

This route follows a lot of the existing 86 km route, but avoids the dreaded Ornella climb and 967 hm. From Arabba the trail will take the HEROes straight to the Passo Pordoi, along the 60 km route before taking them onto the 86 km route towards Selva Val Gardena.

The organisers created this route to open the competition to even more people, letting people who’ve already challenged themselves on the 60 km trail work their way up to the 86 km one, as well as simply letting keen mountain bikers test themselves in one of the world’s most popular and thrilling events.
