https://www.mdifitness.com/dwigl95 The 2021 International Inferno Race in Mürren look set go ahead despite Covid after a recent announcement by the Swiss Government. On 12 August 2020, the government stated that events with more than 1,000 people would be able to resume from the beginning of October.

The inferno is open to all comers

The organisers will host a cross-country contest on Wednesday and giant slalom on Thursday, concluding with the famous and historic Inferno downhill race on Saturday.

Possible measures include spreading the downhill over two days, and scaling back the apres party at the Mürren Sports Centre.

Spreading the race over two days and staggering athlete’s start times would help avoid gatherings of over 50 people. Also, appropriate control measures would be in place at the start and finish areas.

https://hazenfoundation.org/19r9cqgra4 The Inferno Ski Races are open to all and the number of people to enter always exceeds the maximum allowed. In the event the 2021 Inferno Race has to be cancelled due to Covid-19, entry fees will be reimbursed in full. For more details on the event and how to enter CLICK HERE

Then follows a long drawn-out ‘S’ to just below the Muttlerenhorn, followed by the challenge of the Kanonenrohr. Next comes a further ‘Double S’ and a sharp right curve. The course climbs into woodland, crossing the path of the Maulerhubel Skilift. A slight ascent then leads to Winteregg over the Winteregg Bridge, joining the forest trail in the direction of Lauterbrunnen.
