Dolomites Skyrace 2017 - Canazei/Trentino (ITA)

Skyrunning: Trailrunning in the heart of the Dolomites

Dolomites SkyRace 2017

July 2017, Canazei/Trentino (ITA)




This

summer, the Italian mountain region of Trentino is once again the place

to be for the international skyrunnning elite. Thanks to its diverse

landscape with scenic mountains, glaciers, rivers, water streams and

lakes, Trentino is the ideal host for a skyrunnning race.

The

Dolomites Skyrace is one of the most traditional races in this

discipline. It offers two different competitions: first, the Dolomites

Vertical Kilometer, an explosive race for athletes who love coping with

1,000 vertical metres on a 2.5-kilometre course. And on the next day,

the traditional Dolomites Skyrace, which is held for the 20th time. It

provides a 23.5 kilometre course with 12 kilometres uphill and 11.5

kilometres downhill.
