    The route for our M3 - Mountainbike Marathon 2025 covers 75 km and 2500 m of elevation gain.

    This route demands a very high level of fitness from the riders. Sufficient time and adequate provisions are indispensable for this route.

    This course of the Montafon Mountainbike Marathon is a sporting challenge. The entire route may only be ridden in full on race day. On this route, you move through almost the entire Montafon and see it from its different sides. The landscape differences could not be greater. You get the feeling that nature tries to outdo itself in beauty. But you can also learn interesting facts about electricity generation and hydropower along the route. Wonderful viewpoints and cultural highlights pepper this route from start to finish.
