The downhill course in Kranjska Goracategories is approximately 3.000 m long with a vertical drop of 450 m . Estimated racing time is between 3:30 and 4 minutes.

 

Access to start is available via the Podkoren chairlift. In training the bottom 2/3 of the course can also be accessed by the Vitranc I chairlift.

 

Masters riders will be racing on the bottom 2/3 of the course. The course is about 2.000 in length with 300 m vertical drop. Racing time between 2:30 and 3 minutes.

 

 

The new top part of the course (junior + elite only) is steep and technical, mostly in the woods with plenty of roots and rocks.

The lower part, frequently used in national races, will be slightly changed for the Championships but will remain fast and flowing. Long stretches are on open ski slopes, shorter sections in the woods and a bit on gravel jeep trails.

 

The course ends much closer to the village than in national races, bringing the action right to the doorsteps of the town hotels.
