Obereggen moves toward opening and proposes big-signature European Cup

The countdown è has begun

All eyes are on the oldest European Cup race currently on the international circuit: the 41st edition of the men’s slalom in Obereggen scheduled for Monday, December 16 on the Maierl slope (maximum slope gradient up to 55 percent). The Obereggen European Cup will constitute, as usual, a prelude to the traditional World Cup slalom in Italy, this year’s slalom in Alta Badia on Dec. 23. In the 2023 edition, the slalom in Obereggen was won by Swiss Schmidiger, second by Frenchman Amiez, and third by Austrian Rueland. The chronicle of the race will be broadcast on the same evening on Monday, Dec. 16, by channel Rai Sport (number 48 on the remote control).

Obereggen (20 minutes from Bolzano), one of the hearts of the Latemar ski area (with its Trentino sisters Pampeago and Predazzo), will be the first of the 12 valleys in the Dolomiti Superski international ski carousel to open the first lifts since the establishment of Dolomiti Superski. As a tribute to it and to the prestigious anniversary, Obereggen will open the turnstiles on Friday, Nov. 29, both at 8:30 a.m. and at night with the first night skiing at 7 p.m. and final party at the’Apres Ski Loox downstream from the historic Oberholz slope.

From Saturday, November 30, 2024 at 8:30 a.m.è scheduled opening of the lifts and slopes of Obereggen, Pampeago and Predazzo and related connections.
