A length of between 1,200 and 1,250 meters, for a course designed as much to test the champions of the discipline as much as to provide an immersive and engaging experience for the publicin attendance. The ride will be completely new, unprecedented even for those already familiar with the snow of Livigno.
The Rin Da Rin area has been chosen, in the central block of the cross-country trail, just above the entrance to the Cross-Country Ski Center and near the Snowfarm. Start and finish are both located in the Rin Da Rin slope, but separate, to ensure the public a breathtaking finish.
Athletes take off uphill, making their way to the Snowfarm area and immediately trying to make selection. The course continues downhill, with two very fast and techniques that lead to a second climb, with 12 meters of elevation gain: the last chance to separate from the others before the final straight. And it is the final straight that is the real highlight of the course: a very long finish, purpose-built to allow athletes to challenge each other openly, minimizing the risk of contact and crashes.
Nearly 350 meters of sprint, also developed with important amplitudes, to offer a perfect view to the parterre audience and a clean lane to each of the participants. Overall, it is a classic design: the right meeting point between technicality and thespectacle, which lends itself well to welcoming fans, for whom admission will be free, ensuring always a full perspective of the track from every vantage point. The ideal way to enjoy the performances of Federico Pellegrino, Johannes Høsflot Klæbo, Richard Jouve and all the other champions, who will bring to life a special weekend
