Scheduled for the beginning of July, the Swiss resort is – along with Lourdes – one of the new venues this year. Lenzerheide will welcome the season’s first combined XCO/DHI event, which will also be the first of three rounds (2015-2017) at the venue in the lead-up to the 2018 UCI World Championships. The Swiss, traditionally strong in XCO, will have the chance to race at home and the athletes wait impatiently the first weekend of July.

The track in the Swiss Alps is unknown territory for most of the riders and will be one of the most challenging stops in the mountain bike circuit this year.
   
The difficult track will require the riders to exert power and endurance if they want to take the crown. Can overall champion Jolanda Neff make the Swiss fans proud with a victory on home soil?
