We are pleased to announce that the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup will take place in Lenzerheide from 8 to 10 July 2022. There will be restrictions on track operations and the Bike Kingdom Park during and after the event.

Restrictions Rothorn 1 and Bike Kingdom Park
The Rothorn 1 gondola lift and Bike Kingdom Park are part of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup event site, which is subject to admission. From 8 to 10 July 2022, an entry ticket for the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup event area must be purchased in order to use the Rothorn 1 gondola lift. Hikers and bikers who do not wish to visit the Bike World Cup are recommended to use the open facilities and offers on the west side (Tgantieni / Scalottas / panorama cable car Heidbüel / Pradaschier), in Arosa or the Alpenbikepark in Chur during the race days. All facilities operated in summer are open, including Weisshorn Speed and the Rothorn 2 reversible aerial tramway.

Bike transport on the Rothorn 1 gondola from 7 to 10 July 2022 (Bike Kingdom Park closed).
The Bike Kingdom Park is closed for tourist use due to the XCO and DHI trainings and races of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup. Bikes will be transported for the onward journey to Arosa or the Rothorn summit. Priority is given to the transport of pedestrians and athletes.

Road closures and diversions
There will be various road closures and diversions on the Voa Principala in Lenzerheide and Valbella before, during and after the event. This will also affect the post buses and sports buses. The bus stops Valbella, Canols, Lenzerheide Rothornbahn, Sportzentrum Dieschen Sot, La Riva and Altersheim will not be served during the event. In addition, the Rothorn car park will be closed. The organizers would like to thank the public for their understanding.
