From 3th to 5th January 2025, the 19th edition of the Tour de Ski will end again in Val di Fiemme. As always, the spotlight will all be on the Final Climb, the exciting final competition of the Tour that will see the athletes engaged along a 9 km course with an amazing finish on Alpe del Cermis, along the steep Olimpia III alpine ski slope.
