Save the date, the first weekend of May (Saturday 4 and Sunday 5) will stage the third edition of ASICS Malcesine Baldo Trail.
The international happening dedicated to running in nature of the Alto Garda takes shape with new features and improvements that will make it even more spectacular and engaging: “Following the advice of those who have already run our races, we have decided to concentrate all our energies on the three trail races,” said Claudio Arduini of VRM TEAM Asd. “Therefore, we will not propose again the vertical on Friday afternoon to focus men and resources on the three distances of 50, 24 and 16 km scheduled on Saturday, May 4 and Sunday, May 5. Not only that, for the long and intermediate distance, our course setters have managed to identify a new and better downhill route in the stretch from Passo Tratto Spino to the finish line. This will make the last kilometers less challenging but just as beautiful; with less gradient and more safety. A real relief for the legs especially of the 50k athletes.”

Otherwise, the format remains the same as always with lots of organizational passion, a desire to party and trails with breathtaking views of the border mountains between Veneto and Trentino Alto Adige on the municipalities of Malcesine, Brentonico, and Avio.
“The strong point of our event is for sure the start and finish location,” Arduini continued, “Malcesine is a beautiful town, a real gem set on the shores of Alto Garda. After running on single tracks that are nothing short of striking, we await athletes and companions at the headquarters on the lakefront for the beautiful post-race party on Saturday night.”
