Trailtrophy 2016 with Flims as the new Swiss venue

After five Trailtrophy events in Lenzerheide, the Grisons bike mecca is coming to an end. However, the fourth stop of this popular enduro racing series will remain in Graubünden and move to Flims-Laax. The finale of the five-race series is moving to Kronplatz.

The Trailtrophy is making a regional change for its seventh year. While the venues of Latsch (ITA), Harz (GER), Breitenbrunn (GER) and Kronplatz (ITA) remain, Lenzerheide is no longer on the calendar. The event potential there was exhausted for quite some time, which is why a little breathing space in their event calendar is good. It also became increasingly difficult to transport the Trail Trophy participants to the start of the stages with the mountain railroads in a reasonable time frame, as Thomas Schlecking from the organizing company Bike Projects GmbH explains. As an enduro region, Flims-Laax will be an ideal replacement for the event in Lenzerheide. The date of the TrailTrophy powered by Transalpes.com in Flims-Laax has been set for the weekend of July 29-31, 2016.
While Flims-Laax will be the fourth stop of the TrailTrophy, Kronplatz will follow as the final event.
