Winter Trail Monte Prealba
The Winter Trail Monte Prealba is the race that kicked off the adventure of the Bione Trailers Team, now in its 14th edition. Over the years, it has undergone significant evolution in both organization and course. It is offered in 4 different versions to accommodate the needs of all trailers, ranging from SOFTLY (13 km, 750m D+) to SOFTLY HARD (24 km, 1450m D+), from ULTRA MARATHON (55 km, 3400m D+) to HARD (70 km, 4500m D+). The winter period enhances the characteristics of the Bione and Valle Sabbia landscape with its single tracks and very suggestive passages, such as the Stretta di Luina in the Parco delle Fucine di Casto and the summit of Monte Prealba, the race's peak at 1270m. Many consider the Winter Trail Monte Prealba a truly tough trail that rewards the effort with truly exciting views and landscapes. More than 150 volunteers on the course and an IT system entirely developed by Bione Trailers Team, connected to the operational headquarters, constantly monitor the athletes throughout the event.
