Stage 3 begins and gets into the climbing immediately. Teams leave St. Moritz and head directly into the mountains and up to the 2 472m above sea level mark within 10 kilometres. The Marmotta Flow Trail is the reward for the early efforts and gently winds down from Corviglia to Marguns with a few jumps – keep an eye out for the local Marmottas on the trail! The route continues its North-East trajectory towards Bever via Samedan. Once in Val Bever, it is as if time has stood still as pristine nature and total tranquility abound, apart from the buzzing of freehubs from the teams racing through the center of the valley. Here the climbing begins and does not stop until teams reach the summit below Piz Nair at 45 kilometres. The climbs include ascents of the Pass Suvretta and Munt da San Murezzan trail with its incredible views of Bernina massif and the lakes of Engiadina. With the lion’s share of the climbing accounted for, the flow arrives in full force. First up is the WM Flow Trail; the WM flow trail passes along the legendary racing slope on which three World Ski Championships have been held since 1974. The trail offers a breathtaking panorama and numerous challenging bends – not least a tricky “looping“ (360°) bend – note it as something special. After a short climb the Olympia Flow Trail awaits, which has been harmoniously integrated into the surrounding landscape and leads across the 1948 Olympic Ski Slope through rocky terrain, ruggedly romantic Alpine meadows, and fragrant pine forests. The trail was even described by Danny MacAskill as an endless ride on a magic carpet! Finally, the Foppetas Flow Trail ends the day on a trail-induced high through the forest above Champfèr before the finish line is crossed in St. Moritz. Next up, the Queen Stage. 🔔 Subscribe to our YouTube channel: 🌐 Visit our website to access more content: 📲 And Follow us on all our social networks: Instagram: Facebook:
