MTB Swiss Epic 2022 XCM – Stage 5 – Davos – Davos : 58 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.
The final 58 kilometres of the 2022 SPAR Swiss Epic packs as many of the famous Trails Paradise Davos singletracks as possible to ensure that the 2022 event ends of the highest of highs. The stage is a compacted Bahnentour, without the ski lift assists, taking in many of the legendary tour’s best-loved trails. These include the Panorama, Gotschnaboden, Drusatscha, Flüela, Ischalp and Bolgen Trails. Each is unique. From the undulating and scenic Panorama to the rooty Gotschnaboden and natural Flüela. The fast-flowing Drusatscha and final Bolgen will fight for the riders’ favourite status on the stage, but the real victor will be the finishers. With the Alps conquered, the celebrations will be hard-earned and they will ensure that the 2022 SPAR Swiss Epic lives on in memory for years to come.
