Primiero San Martino di Castrozza, Passo Rolle, Primiero and Vanoi are preparing to host an unforgettable event: in 2026, the valley will welcome the UCI MTB Marathon World Championships. A landmark occasion that, for the first time, will see both the Elite and Master categories competing over the same weekend and on the very same course.
The big news is that the World Championships are now open to all amateur categories. For mountain bike enthusiasts, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to test themselves on the legendary Mythos Primiero Dolomiti course and share the excitement of a world championship alongside the sport's greatest champions. The programme will see the world's top riders compete for the Elite World Championship title on Saturday, 12 September 2026, while Sunday, 13 September 2026, will be dedicated to the race for the twelve Master World Championship titles.
All of this takes place against the breathtaking backdrop of the Pale di San Martino, the charming villages of Fiera di Primiero, Imèr and Mezzano, and an unspoilt natural landscape that makes this destination a true outdoor paradise. An epic challenge awaits in the heart of the Dolomites.
