Raiffeisen Granitmarathon 2025

Descrizione

With a distance of 90 km,peppered with3,100 meters of altitude
difference, the Raiffeisen Xtreme route is one of the greatest challenges that
mountain bikers can face in Austria. The challenging descent to the Partenstein
power plant, crossing the Große Mühl, the downhill to the Danube, the steep
climb to Lembach and the brisk passage through the Kleine Mühl. The last
reserves will be mobilized in the quarry 2 km before the finish. The weather
conditions can be aggravating. So pouring rain with hail, lightning and
thunder, sweltering heat up to 47 degrees in the quarry have often been border
areas for the bikers in the history of the Raiffeisen Granitmarathon. A top
condition through months of training is a basic requirement in order to be able
to enjoy the route at least a little! The men's elite class is holding this
year's state championship over this distance.

At 60 kilometers, there is a waiting period of 4 hours (1 p.m.). This corresponds to an average of 15km/h.

Possibility of team scoring: the largest team wins.
