Marathon World Cup

HERO Südtirol Dolomites
Selva Val Gardena - Italy
In 2025, we will celebrate the 15th edition of the HERO Südtirol Dolomites, the toughest mountain bike marathon in the world. This milestone event will also serve as the third stage of the HERO UCI Cross-Country Marathon World Cup. Aspiring World Cup champions will face the challenging trails surrounding the iconic Sella massif:
-
Men: 86 km with 4,500 m of elevation gain
-
Women: 60 km with 3,200 m of elevation gain
Riders will take on steep climbs, technical descents, and a variety of terrains as they race through the four Ladin valleys of the Sellaronda and the Seiser Alm. It’s a true test of endurance — both physical and mental — for amateurs and professionals alike. A challenge worthy of true HEROES.
*Registration for the HERO UCI Marathon World Cup CLOSES on Friday, 6 June at 12:00 pm.
