The Dreiländergiro is a popular European alpine cycling marathon starting and finishing in Nauders, featuring challenging routes across three countries and over 3,000 vertical meters with an ascent of the Stelvio Pass.
What this race demands
This alpine cycling marathon demands exceptional climbing endurance and high-altitude pacing to manage 3,300 meters of elevation gain over 168 kilometers.
Climbing Volume
Over 3,300 meters of vertical gain distributed across a 168-kilometer route requires sustained climbing strength and efficient energy management on long alpine ascents.
High-Altitude Endurance
Ascending the Stelvio Pass demands strong aerobic capacity and the ability to sustain effort at high altitudes where oxygen availability is reduced.
Muscular Durability
A continuous alpine profile requires persistent muscular engagement on climbs and technical focus during descents over a lengthy duration.
Target 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain energy output throughout the extended duration of the alpine marathon.
