On 29 and 30 August 2026, the Swiss Enduro Series returns to Airolo for the only stage in Ticino.
For the fifth consecutive year, the Swiss Enduro Series (SES) returns to Airolo. On 29 and 30 August 2026, the best MTB enduro riders will compete on the trails of the Airolo Bike Park for one of the most anticipated stages of the SES circuit.
Being part of this calendar alongside locations such as Laax is a source of great pride for us. And once again this year, you, the public, will have the opportunity to see the enduro professionals up close as they speed along trails that will put them to the test. And why not, perhaps even pick up a few tricks.
Given the great commitment that the organisation of such an event requires, we are happy to be able to collaborate with the Velo Club Bellinzona on the organisation of the only Ticino stage of the SES circuit.
At the start of the Airolo cablecar we will set up the village of the event, for two days of entertainment, gastronomy, music and lots of fun!
Throughout the weekend, RideAlps.ch guides will be available to take you by e-Bike to some strategic points near the routes from the race, allowing you to admire the athletes' descents up close.
For the occasion, a pavilion equipped with a buvette, grill and other gastronomic offerings will be set up near the bar la Chièuna.
Live as an insider the first ticinese stage of SES enduro in Ticino!
Dear Airolo friends, we need you!
In order to cope with the work required to host such an event, we will need several people to help us on the ground over the weekend.
The best part of volunteering at an event like this is getting a behind-the-scenes look at how a major event comes together. And together, we’ll make sure it truly is something big!
