Crono Sora 'l Sas

A uphill time trial that is a journey back in time: from Forno di Zoldo to the Refuge Angelini Sora 'l Sass following the ancient paths of shepherds, timbermen, and hunters.

The wild and mysterious Spiz di Mezzodì will be the setting for the second edition of this uphill mountain running race, both competitive and non-competitive, with staggered starts every 30". 

From the 850 mt of the village of Forno di Là, passing the spring Aiva del Boschét, we ascend steadily through the beech forest along the Triòl dei Aialét (sent. cai 534), passing through Pausa Piccola, Mezzana and Granda, once resting places for cattle heading to the higher pastures.  

At an altitude of 1170m, we leave the main path to take the Triòl del Vach de Mezodì, a little-used variant that will lead us, through woods and clearings on a more runnable and faster route, to the old pasture of Casera del Mezodì (1350 mt). The trail returns to the forest and, after a stretch that is still flowing, lets us down at the foot of the Valòn Pìcol, where the last strenuous climb on a winding path awaits us to finally reach the small plateau of Sora 'l Sas and then the finish line.

The Refuge Angelini at 1588 mt will then be the arrival point, refreshment, and celebration for a second part in company, in a place of great beauty where the gaze will range freely over the peaks of the Spiz di Mezodì and the other summits of the Dolomites of Val di Zoldo.

Time trial of 4.5 km and 750 m D+ (competitive and non-competitive)

Participants will start one at a time at intervals of 30 seconds. The maximum time set is 2 hours.

At the finish area, at the Refuge Angelini - Sora'l Sas, the "post-race" event will take place.
The return to the start will be done autonomously on foot following the race route backwards.

Alongside the competitive race, a non-competitive run will take place that, while maintaining the route and regulations, does not require the presentation of a sports medical certificate.
