Haute Route Dolomites Swiss Alps
About the event
Geneva plays host to the start of the Haute Route Dolomites Swiss Alps (5th - 11th September). Riders will brave their way up some of Europe’s highest climbs on their way to the final finish line in the picturesque Italian city of Venice. Perhaps the most visually arresting climb in Switzerland, San Gottardo, has been added to the Haute Route roster - a formidable summit finish to stage two with its cobble stone sections. The most dramatic climbs of the Dolomites again feature towards the end of the week, including the double ascent of the Stelvio, the Gavia and Giau. The 12 summits above 2000m, 900km of riding and 21000m of climbing undoubtedly make the Haute Route Dolomites Swiss Alps the most demanding of the three weeks.
