If this isn’t self-sabotage, it’s close. The Schladming (AUT) event significantly overlaps with Pierra Menta, and the Villars sur Ollon (SUI) event is on the same date as the Adamello Ski Raid. As if that wasn't enough, the Mezzalama Trophy (ISMF Long Distance World Championship) is not even mentioned on the World Championships link (Click here). Don’t worry, we have included the date in the calendar below!

A few seasons ago, the federation leaders and the La Grande Course circuit signed a collaboration agreement that was supposed to protect the iconic races of our sport... and yet here we are again.

Exactly: a sport aiming for the Olympic spotlight instead of preserving and promoting its great classics seems to do everything to oppose them. Congratulations, the descent into the abyss is getting closer and closer!

Let’s go into the details of these 9 stages (weren't six enough?). In this journey through historic locations and some new entries, athletes will have to compete in

7 Sprints, 5 Individual, 4 Vertical, and 5 Mixed events. Regarding Italy, it will be a major player with two World Cup stages: one in Bormio (a true pre-Olympic test) and one in Val Martello. Special mention also goes to the Junior World Cup, which will stop in both Crévacol – Saint Rhémy en Bosses and Forni di Sopra.
