Why the Davos X-Trails Diamond Is Defined by Its Descents (938m at -17.77% Average — Top of the Database)
Q: How hard is the Davos X-Trails Diamond 68km? A: Very hard. The course covers ~68km with 3,309m of gain across three mountain passes reaching 2,739m. The biggest descent drops 938m in 5.28km at a -17.77% average gradient — among the steepest sustained descents in the DTR database. Snow is possible on the course in July; organizers recommend 4 days of altitude acclimatization before the race. A 14-hour time limit and ITRA 3 points reflect the course's genuine difficulty.
