What to Expect on Monaco di Baviera Lite
Monaco di Baviera Lite is the little sister of the already legendary ultracycling challenge Monaco di Baviera Classic. With the same spirit, the same flow, and the same pursuit of greatness, Lite offers a shorter path for those who are not yet ready for the Classic, or for those who prefer a challenge within reach.
The fixed route covers 840 km with 12,880 meters of ascent, leading riders through some of Europe’s most iconic climbs: the majestic Passo Stelvio via Umbrailpass, the rugged beauty of the Dolomites over Passo delle Erbe and Passo Furcia, and the unforgettable crossing of the Grossglockner Alpenstrasse on the way back.
What makes Lite truly remarkable is the perfect balance of beauty and toughness: an epic challenge packed into fewer kilometers, but with no shortage of difficulty. The route unfolds across breathtaking scenery, much of it along dedicated cycling paths, far from traffic, letting you focus entirely on the ride and the landscapes around you.
Monaco di Baviera Lite — the shortest path to glory.
