43rd GRANFONDOVALCASIES

Every number tells a story, every milestone brings excitement: the GranFondoValCasies marks a 42-year adventure that has welcomed a total of 78,062 enthusiasts at the finish line and is nearing a round number. This milestone is eagerly anticipated for the 43rd edition, which on February 20 and 21,2027,will once again welcome athletes and enthusiasts from every corner of the world for an unforgettable cross-country skiing adventure amid the picturesque snow-covered landscapes of the South Tyrolean valley. The program for the 43rd edition is divided into two days: Saturday is dedicated to the classic technique and Sunday to the freestyle technique, with participants in both categories able to choose between 30-kilometer and 42-kilometer courses. The start and finish will be in San Martino, from where the route winds through some of the valley’s most evocative and iconic landscapes. Those who choose the longer distance will continue along the route to Santa Maddalena, at the far end of the Val Casies, immersing themselves even more deeply in the beauty of this unspoiled landscape. Once again, the GranFondoValCasies will be a highlight of the Ski Classics Challengers calendar, with Saturday’s and Sunday’s races counting toward the prestigious international circuit—but that’s not all: Sunday’s event will also feature Italy’s top athletes competing in the Senior Italian Cup stage and the Italian Under-23 Championship, events that will raise the bar even higher. For the U18s, however, the event is the MiniValCasies. For its 33rd edition, the organizing committee expects record participation, thanks in part to the special presence of young South Tyrolean FISI athletes from the biathlon section. Anticipation is growing day by day, and the organizing committee, led by longtime president Walter Felderer, is working tirelessly to prepare for an edition that promises truly special achievements.
