PITZTAL WILD FACE

The Pitztal Wild Face has been taking place since 2009; one of the toughest freeride races in the world. The race starts at the Mittagsgogel, where it’s well worth watching simply for the relaxed yet competitive atmosphere on the Pitztal Glacier. As well as the race, there are various supporting events that make a visit particularly worthwhile. The race is a time trial on the north face of the Mittagskogel, in which 100 riders compete in four categories (ski and snowboard for men and women). The event has been part of the Freeride World Tour since 2013 and is a Freeride World Qualifier.
