Canalone Miramonti

All the secrets of the Canalone Miramonti slope designed by Bruno Detassis.

Start
Start
The entrance to the Campiglio slope is gradual, usually with a couple of corner gates to control the pace before speeding up for the first change of gradient.
Diagonal approach

The diagonal in the counter-slope is the first delicate passage: the track leads the athlete to the left, you have to be skilled and precise to get up and find the right time.

A new change of gradient leads to the heart of the Canalone Miramonti, with some spinning gates that introduce the more technical terrain: at the end of this section, the athlete finally appears to the public of Campiglio.
Knee of the Canalone
Knee of the Canalone
The "knee" takes the athletes to the Miramonti wall, famous for its difficulty and always perfect when the athletes pass by. Since a few seasons, the section of the wall is even closed during race day, so that it cannot be damaged during recognition.
Last gradient switch

Do you think the job is done? Not even close. The last few gates are less steep, but enlivened by a couple of bumps that have provided spectacular images and breath-taking passages in recent seasons.
Finish line

And lastly the finish line, immersed in the heart of Madonna di Campiglio. The runs on the Canalone Miramonti last between 45 and 48 seconds: a duration that also makes it possible to optimise the TV performance, enhancing the images of the finish line and the context in preparation for the next start.

The History

Designed in 1940 by mountaineer and director of the first ski school in Madonna di Campiglio Bruno Detassis, the “Lord of Brenta”, Canalone Miramonti is a true skiing legend.

In 1967, it hosted the very first World Cup race held in Italy, which ended with a French trio on the podium: Perillat, Jauffret and Lacroix. Numerous 3Tre events have been held on this slope, including World Cup and European Cup races, the historic event created in 1948, which has become a regular fixture on the FIS World Cup calendar.
