Red BUll X-AlPS 2021: RAce TO MOnT BlAnc - And BAck!

adramatic new route has been revealed for the Red Bull x-alps 2021. It’s no longer a race to Monaco but a race across the alps - and back again.

The Red Bull X-Alps returns for its tenth edition in 2021 and is set to be the most challenging route in its history. Every edition of the world’s toughest adventure race features a different route but this year is a radical break from the past for the 33 athletes taking part. Instead of making their way from the alpine peaks to the Mediterranean Sea; they will travel a full circle starting in Salzburg and ending in the waters of Zell am See, Austria via 12 turnpoints. It’s a straight line distance of 1,238km, 100km further than 2019, and the longest to date.

The race starts with a one day Prologue on June 17th at Wagrain-Kleinarl and the main race begins on Sunday, June 20th. On the start line will be 33 athletes from 17 countries, 30 men and three women, all of whom have passed a gruelling selection process to ensure only the most capable and experienced endurance athletes take part. NZ has Nick Neynens and Kinga Masztalerz competing this year so tune in to follow them at; www.redbullxalps.com

The Red Bull X-Alps is a uniquely spectator friendly event in the current climate. Fans can follow all the action remotely via Live Tracking, which lets users see the race and all its dramas unfold in real time. They can also choose to follow their favourite athlete and see what they experience via cockpit view. Live Tracking is highly addictive!
