The Dobbiaco-Cortina stands out from other granfond activities in the landscape for the originality of its format and the unparalleled beauty of its course at both competitive and, above all, naturalistic-environmental levels.
The Granfondo ‘takes off’ from the airport plain of Dobbiaco to arrive at Fiames-Cortina d’Ampezzo.
If the dates change, the formats remain the highly appreciated ones with the 42 km in classic technique on Saturday the 17th and the 35 km in freestyle technique on Sunday the 18th, for an intense two-day event dedicated to the passion for cross-country skiing.
The departure is set from the military airport of Dobbiaco for both the Saturday race in TC and the Sunday race in TL. The 42 km will head towards San Candido, directing skiers towards the 1500 meters of altitude at Passo Cimabanche, passing by Lake Dobbiaco, the War Cemetery, Lake Landro, View Tre Cime, Val Fonda, and Carbonin, before returning towards the finish line located at the Nordic Arena of Dobbiaco.
The 35 km skating variant - which will also be valid as the Italian Championship and a stage of the FISI Amatori Master Coppa Italia - will follow the same route but will cut directly towards Lake Dobbiaco after the start, without proceeding towards San Candido.
For this edition, the Granfondo Dobbiaco-Cortina will once again be part of the renowned international Ski Classics circuit as a “Challengers” event.
