Cross-country skiing is a complete sport, which combines the benefits of sport activity with the pleasure of enjoying the landscape while skiing in the midst of nature, at a slow pace. Trentino is the right place to practice it and where many races are held. The most important is the Marcialonga, the most prominent Granfondo race in Italy featuring a staggering 70km long course across Valle di Fassa and Val di Fiemme.
It’s one of the most followed races in the world of cross-country skiing, but also a celebration that gathers a passionate crowd of professional athletes, fervent supporters, sporting experts and amateurs on the last Sunday of January in Trentino.
