The folks at Alta Alpina have been working tirelessly to create a pandemic friendly event. According to the event producers — the size, location, and format of the Alta Alpina Challenge make it uniquely qualified to be adapted to a pandemic friendly event. New protocols and operational plans have been adapted for a COVID-19 Edition.
The route options and cut-off times will remain the same, and all riders and volunteers are required to practice social distancing and mask protocols.
