Course DNA
The Course
Cortina d'Ampezzo start at night. Rifugio Auronzo and Passo Monte Croce open the eastern arc. Sesto and Dobbiaco in the Alta Pusteria. Forcella Lavaredo at 2,454 meters beneath the Tre Cime. Pace the early miles. The split often shows at mile 37. 30 hours spans 120 km on 80% trail. +20,187 ft shapes the middle miles.
The Work
Dolomite trail with runnable descents and steep limestone switchbacks. Train night hiking for the opening hours. Limestone descents trash calves if you skip weekly eccentric downhill blocks. Stack vert on back-to-back June weekends.
Kit
UTMB mandatory kit. Headlamp for the 11 pm start. Poles for Forcella Lavaredo. June in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy: 45°F to 85°F. Pack for 12 stations and night if 30 hours runs long. Spare batteries for the Tre Cime ridge before dawn.
Race Day
Tre Cime at sunrise is the emotional high. Cortina at km 80 is half distance. Forcella Lavaredo still decides the story. Forcella Lavaredo beneath the Tre Cime decides the back half. Hold calories and keep aid stops under control with 30 hours on the clock.
