ADAMELLO ULTRA TRAIL: PRESIDENT STATEMENT

Paolo Gregorini, President of ASD Adamello Ultra Trail, the event organizing company, expressed his satisfaction: “I remember when 7 years ago we started with 70 athletes and among the general skepticism. Today we have sold out the 650 available numbers and we keep on getting more requests: it means that hard work is paying off, and I am grateful to all those who have supported us, volunteers, sponsors, and institutions. For the future, our dream is to create a permanent ring linked to Adamello Ultra Trail: it is an ambitious project, but one that we are looking to fulfill.”

ADAMELLO SERIES

The program of the “Adamello Series” collateral events has also been renewed, as they now take place in the set up to the main events rather than contemporarily. On Sunday, August 29th, 2021, it will be time for the sixth edition of Adamello Run, the 30 km competitive run (600 mt positive gain) in Alta Val Camonica organized in collaboration with ASD Rosa Running Team, starting and finishing in Ponte di Legno. The same day will also mark the debut of Adamello Slow, a non-competitive 20 km hike. Sunday, September 19th, 2021, is the day chosen for Adamello Trail Junior, the event dedicated to kids from 0 to 19, with several rings going from Vione to the enchanting Conca di Premia.
