International race in the heart of the Dolomites – Across the Dolomites
The Cortina-Dobbiaco Run is the most evocative running race in the Dolomites: a multi-sensory experience that combines sport, nature and breathtaking scenery along a single, incredible route.
On 31 May 2026, hundreds of athletes from all over Europe and beyond will compete and experience the thrill of the 30 km route that connects the queen of the Dolomites, Cortina d’Ampezzo, with the renowned resort of Dobbiaco, in the heart of Alta Pusteria.
The race starts on Corso Italia, in the centre of Cortina, and after a few kilometres enters the enchanting setting of the historic Dolomite Railway, where the gently rising dirt track passes through tunnels carved into the rock and over small bridges suspended in mid-air, with the Dolomite peaks providing the backdrop throughout.
The highest point is reached at the Cima Banche Pass (1,530 m), the natural watershed between Veneto and South Tyrol, after which the route descends gently towards Lake Landro, offering views of the iconic Three Peaks of Lavaredo, before crossing the finish line next to the Grand Hotel in Dobbiaco.
In addition to the main race, the weekend features 6 events over 3 days, including races for all ages and abilities – from the Spring Night Run to the Kids Run and the charity Run FOR – creating a festive and inclusive atmosphere that attracts over 3,000 participants from all over the world each year.
A unique event where scenic beauty and sporting passion come together, for those who wish to experience the mountains from a new perspective, running through forests, past alpine lakes and amid legendary vistas.
