Ra Corsa dei Sestieri – 90th Anniversary

On Sunday, March 22, 2026, the snow of Passo Tre Croci will host one of Cortina d’Ampezzo’s most beloved traditions: Ra Corsa dei Sestieri, celebrating the 90th anniversary of the Winter Palio of the Sestieri.

This historic event brings together the six traditional districts of Cortina d’Ampezzo, whose representatives compete in a cross-country skiing challenge that celebrates teamwork, local identity and the deep connection with the mountains.

The event begins at 10:00 AM, with a full program of races and celebrations:

• 10:00 AM – Minipalio, dedicated to young participants

• 10:30 AM – Women’s Palio

• 11:00 AM – Men’s Palio

• 12:00 PM – Award Ceremony

To mark the special anniversary, the day will also feature the Presidents’ Palio, a symbolic race celebrating 90 years of this historic tradition.

The awards ceremony will take place on site and will be followed by a food area with a traditional barbecue, creating a festive atmosphere where sport, community and the breathtaking Dolomite scenery come together.

Ra Corsa dei Sestieri is more than a race—it is a celebration of Cortina’s heritage, mountain culture and community spirit.
