Levi Up is back!

Levi UP is an uphill running race held on the front slope of Levi. The race will test your lungs in a brutal uphill climb.

Levi UP starts from Zero Point and finishes at Restaurant Horizont on top of the front slope, making it a highly spectator-friendly event, as competitors remain visible to the audience throughout the race.

3:00 PM – BIKE PARK PHOTO SESSIONS

Bike Park Photo Sessions moved from Tuesday to Thursday!
Would you like professional action photos of yourself at Levi Bike Park? Bike Fest is hosting a relaxed photo session where all you need to do is polish your helmet and ride. We will gather at the upper station of the Gondoli 2000 lift and head together to the photo locations, most likely Sunny South or the new Santa’s Cabin trail, both offering spectacular scenery. Each participant will receive approximately three professional-quality photos.
Please bring your own lift pass and bike.
Weather permitting.

We reserve the right to make changes.
