VAL DI FASSA, TRENTINO 2025: FULL ALIGNMENT WITH THE NEW DIRECTION OF THE UCI ENDURO WORLD CUP

The two-day race format and the course – still top secret – bring enduro back to its roots, with the aim of fully expressing the discipline’s potential and the value of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

From June 27 to 29, 2025, the UCI Enduro World Cup returns to Val di Fassa, Trentino, with a renewed spirit. This marks an important step for the sport, involving not only professional athletes but also amateur riders of the Enduro Open, and the spectators.

Thanks to the new structure of the series, venues that host enduro only – like Val di Fassa – now have more freedom in designing the course. The local organizing committee is using this opportunity to promote a clear vision: to celebrate the adventurous, physical, and technical nature of enduro.
The opening round of the World Cup in Pietra Ligure showed how much this approach was appreciated by both athletes and fans. In Val di Fassa, the goal is the same: to deliver a true mountain race, where high-quality riding meets great spectator experience.

The 10th anniversary of high-level enduro events becomes the perfect occasion to highlight years of experience and a deep connection with both the sport and the territory.
Enduro in Val di Fassa has always been raced in a genuine way, staying true to its original spirit: real climbs, technical descents, stunning views, and the same enthusiasm that made this destination a global reference point.

World Cup athletes will race across two days – Saturday and Sunday – and we can already say that one of those days will be fully pedaled. The Enduro Open will take place on Saturday only, and will include lift access.
In both cases, the course will combine reworked legendary sections and brand-new lines, bringing rider adaptability and terrain reading back to the center of the challenge.

“We are in the heart of the Dolomites, and as tradition goes, part of the course will be connected by lift access,” says William Basilico, Race Director. “But the lifts are not used to reduce the effort – they help us increase the total descending and create even longer and more spectacular stages. The result is an epic challenge. Also, practice days – Thursday and Friday for World Cup riders, Friday for Enduro Open – will follow the exact race loop, including transfers. That means riders will have already climbed quite a bit before the race even starts – just like proper enduro should be.”

For the spectators, enduro in Val di Fassa means being close to the action: following the riders up close, reaching key spectator points along the stages thanks to the lifts, and feeling the energy of a major race weekend.

The Event Village in Canazei will be the heart of the event, with the finish line and team paddock just steps away, high-quality food & beverage, a big screen to follow live timing, and a merchandise area where fans can find exclusive products celebrating the 10-year anniversary. Everything is designed to offer the best race weekend experience.

Many bike-friendly accommodations offer special discounts for longer stays, and part of the Fassa Bike District will remain open for anyone who wants to ride and explore the area during race week.

Don’t miss the Thursday afternoon press conference with the athletes, live on stage and open to the fans – a unique chance to hear directly from the top names in the sport.
In short, all the ingredients are here for a truly memorable enduro weekend.
