40^ TRANSCAVALLO
11-12 FEBRUARY 2023, ALPAGO - PIANCAVALLO
It's time to celebrate an important birthday, the 40th anniversary of Transcavallo!
An important curriculum, which lacks nothing: Italian Championships of all kinds, several World Cups - with the gem of the 1st absolute in the modern era in January 2004 - a great and snowy European in 2009, then the absolute World Championship in 2017 together with Piancavallo and finally the World Master2022.
So, on Saturday 11 February 2023, the great gallop on the mountains on the border between Veneto and Friuli returns, a unique and spectacular stage as this year, with almost 30km of development and about 7,000m in total of daring climbs and breathtaking descents; it will still be "Long distance team 7.0".
Always affiliated with La Grande Course and always offering true ski mountaineering made of steep couloirs, panoramic peaks, exposed ledges and sharp ridges to be covered with the Adriatic in sight to the South and the Dolomites to the North, fantastic!
There will still be the "Classic individual light" for those who want to approach the Transcavallo spirit over a shorter, but no less rewarding, distance.
Then a novelty: the 1st edition of the Alpago Ski-Alp Experience, on Sunday 12 February 2023, the ski mountaineering meeting open to all, without any competitive note, with the opportunity to follow the trail left by the big names, but with the help of the mountain guides and mountain associations, who will help us, and the many companies sponsoring the event. It will certainly be a great experience for everyone, since there will be no lack of entertainment events at the marquee set up for the purpose as early as Friday 10, and the food and wine we will be proposing will also be sure to be succulent - you can't miss it!
Finally, thanks to those who believe in this event, all the sponsors, the institutions of Veneto and Friuli, the many volunteers, the mountain rescue team with all the supervisory bodies and, finally, you athletes and ski mountaineers in general, who do us honour and are the great show and heart of Transcavallo.
ALE' and long live Transcavallo.
