Rope Race
A TRADITIONAL FUN RACE WHERE (ALMOST) ANYTHING IS ALLOWED
The Merano Ski Club and the Merano 2000 ski area have revived an old tradition and bid farewell to winter with music, fun and good spirits.
It is run in teams of three, in the "Grown ups", "Family ties" and "Work Team" categories. Three racers, connected by a rope, master a simple giant slalom route, to reach the finishing line together.
On the podium: The winning team, which is closest to the average time, as well as the fastest and the slowest team. It’s nostalgic, fancy and a bit quirky – just like your ski outfit if you so wish...
