Description
The Alpen Challenge Lenzerheide is the road bike classic in Graubünden and is considered "Europe's most beautiful cycling marathon". Up to 1500 cyclists can take part in two routes from Lenzerheide over the Albula and Julier or via Albula, Maloja and Splügen. This makes the long-distance Alpine Challenge also one of the toughest cycling marathons in the Alps.
The event takes place in August. Up-to-date information is available on the Internet at www.alpenchallengelenzerheide.ch and at www.facebook.com/alpenchallengelenzerheide
Geheimtipp
It is worth starting early – then the temperatures are still pleasant and you have enough time. For the big round, a ride on the Rhaetian Railway to St. Moritz is also an alternative. Then there is one less pass to drive, the Splügen is with over 30 kilometers ascent a blatantly hard task...
Sicherheitshinweis
On the big round please take light with you, there are some tunnels in the Viamala gorge and between Thusis and Tiefencastel. From Thusis to Tiefencastel you can alternatively take the RhB.
