On September 5 and 6, 2026, Cesiomaggiore, in the Belluno area, will be at the center of an important sports and community event with the 9th ANA Mountain Bike Championship.
Two days in which sports, alpine tradition, and promotion of the territory will come together thanks to the organization of the Alpine Group of Cesiomaggiore and the ANA Section of Feltre.
The event will have its operational heart in the Pradenich area, where numerous moments of the event will be concentrated, from race operations to ceremonies, and including the convivial moments that will accompany athletes, participants, and companions. The competition will unfold on two courses, designed to challenge the competitors with different characteristics and difficulties.
Course A, the long one, measures 21 kilometers and has an overall elevation gain of about 1,000 meters. This will be the most demanding course, and especially the one valid for awarding the title of ANA National Champion in mountain biking.
Course B, the short one, develops for 13 kilometers, with an elevation gain of 450 meters, offering a more contained challenge but still requiring preparation and technical skills.
However, the ANA Championship will not be just a competition.
The event indeed arises from the meeting of sports and community spirit, providing Cesiomaggiore with the opportunity to showcase its territory and welcome athletes and representatives from alpine communities coming from different parts of Italy.
