This 15-kilometer race will take place using the same track as the race on Saturday. This is the first time in Visma Ski Classics history that an individual tempo race is in the calendar. One can expect many thrilling battles on the track and some splendid drama as the athletes of all 35 Pro Teams fight for glory in early January.
Lake Misurina is the largest natural lake of the Cadore, a historical place in the Italian region of Veneto. It is 1,754 meters above sea level, and the lake’s perimeter is 2.6 km long while the maximum depth is 5 m. Near the lake, there are about ten hotels with accommodation for around 500 people. The climatic characteristics of the area around the lake make the air particularly good.
