MTB Swiss Epic 2022 XCM – Stage 4 – Laax – Davos : 100 km
The 2022 SPAR Swiss Epic explores the breath-taking trails of Graubünden as it traverses the Alps from Arosa, to Laax before concluding in the now traditional finish in the Race Village of Davos. Taking in 11 700 metres of elevation gain and 11 850 metres of spectacular descending the 2022 SPAR Swiss Epic route totals 359 kilometres in length. Highlights include the magnificent Hörnli and Runca Trails; as well as an ascent to 2 546 metres above sea level on the Urdenfürggli. For teams taking part in the sold-out 2022 edition of the race the spectacular riding will be matched by the hearty Swiss hospitality and the camaraderie of returning to Graubünden’s famed trails once again.
Deep forests and the pale sheer cliffs of the Rheinschlucht offer an early taste of the spectacular scenery to come, before a river-side path provides easy riding through Domleschg Valley. Having descended for over 30 kilometres, the climbing begins with the Alter Schin, a historic footpath carved into the rockface high above the cascading Albula River. The Wiesner Viadukt, the highest bridge on the old Rhaetian Railway, then provides an entrance into the Zügen Schlucht trails. These trails were made famous by Danny McAskill in his Home of Trails video and take teams on an exciting section of stunning cliffs, ancient bridges and tunnels. Near the highest point of the stage the route passes the Junkerboden, immortalised by the art of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, before gradually descending into Davos where tired legs and bodies can recover ahead of Stage 5 and the final demands of the 2022 SPAR Swiss Epic.
