FolgaRace

FolgaRace, high-altitude enduro on the Alpe Cimbra

FolgaRace is the mountain bike enduro event held in Serrada, a village in the municipality of Folgaria, on the Alpe Cimbra plateau in the province of Trento, in the heart of Trentino-Alto Adige. The race takes place at the FolgaRide Bike Park, featuring flow trails, lift-serviced descents, and technical tracks winding through the woods surrounding the village. The event, organized by the Teste di Marmo team, debuted in 2026, bringing a full weekend dedicated to cycling to the valley.

A two-day weekend

The FolgaRace format splits the competition over two days with distinct courses and categories. Saturday is reserved for younger riders with the FolgaRace Kids, a mini-enduro race designed to introduce the next generation to the sport: categories G1-G3 tackle two special stages, while G4-G6 take on three. Sunday is the main event, open to Junior, Enduro, and E-Bike categories, featuring three special stages designed along a fast, pedaling-intensive course, with one stage serviced by the ski lifts.

A regional circuit race

Since its inception, FolgaRace has been part of the official Italian Cycling Federation calendar, awarding the titles of Trentino provincial champion and South Tyrol regional champion in enduro, while also serving as a stage of the Triveneto MTB Enduro Series. This recognition has attracted riders from across Northern Italy to Serrada and highlighted the Alpe Cimbra region, which has invested heavily in bike tourism in recent years with new trails, bike parks, and gravel routes.

Requirements and safety

As this is a demanding discipline, participation requires proper equipment: a full-face helmet, full body protection, and a mountain bike equipped with a single-crown fork and flat pedals. A campsite conveniently located near the start and the Serrada lifts allows participants to experience the entire weekend in close contact with the race and the mountains.

Serrada and the Alpe Cimbra

Nestled among the forests of the Folgaria plateau, Serrada provides the perfect backdrop for an event of this kind: fresh high-altitude air, views of the Dolomites, and an ever-expanding network of trails. FolgaRace is therefore not just a sporting competition, but an opportunity to discover the cycling side of Trentino in late May, as the summer mountain season begins.
