On the Val di Fassa stages, a front wheel wedged between two blocks of rock is enough to send a rider over the bars. Collarbone and wrist fractures are among the most common enduro injuries. Our medical cover up to €150,000 pays for treatment, hospital stays and surgery.
Some stages start high, reached by lift, with no road anywhere near. After a heavy crash, a rider may need mountain rescue before ever reaching a hospital. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost arranges that evacuation from the crash site and your return home afterwards, wherever you live.
A World Series round runs under official timing, and riders take risks they would never take in practice. The Competition option covers you in official competition, at this event and at every other race on your calendar for the season, without a new policy each time.
A misjudged landing or an impact against rock can damage the spine or a joint for good. If a permanent disability is recognised after the accident, the permanent disability benefit of up to €200,000 is paid to you, helping you adapt your home, your work and your daily life.
Afternoon thunderstorms are common in the Dolomites in late June, and wet rock loses grip within minutes. Enduro piles on the fatigue: transfers add up, forearms pump out and focus fades by the last stage. That is where the usual mistakes come from, a misread line, braking too late, a back protector left behind in the van.
Away from race weekends, downhill riding carries the same risks, at bike parks, on local trails or at summer camps. Your policy does not stop at the Val di Fassa finish line: it covers training and racing, at home and abroad. For year-round protection built around the way you ride, see our downhill mountain bike insurance.
This round of the UCI MTB World Series brings elite enduro riders from around the world to Trentino, in a valley ringed by the Sella, Marmolada and Catinaccio groups. Spectators line the stages, and many of them are easy to reach by lift from the valley.
Running an enduro race with several timed stages and long transfers? We insure all your participants under a single policy. Medical assistance can be reached day and night, seven days a week, throughout the event, and repatriation is included. We can also come on board as a partner or sponsor of your race.
Yes. Cover applies to training as well as racing, so practice runs and free riding during race week are covered just like timed runs, within the terms of the policy.
Yes. AxeoSport personal accident insurance applies at home and abroad, whatever your country of residence. If you crash in Val di Fassa, assistance arranges your care and then your journey home.
No. This is not cancellation insurance, so entry fees, travel and accommodation are not refunded. The policy covers the consequences of a bodily injury: medical care, evacuation and permanent disability.
Dolomite rock, scree and early summer storms mean the stages can change from one run to the next. High-speed crashes on hard ground lead to fractures and head injuries, which fall under the medical costs cover.
The price depends on your profile, how long you want cover for and whether you add the Competition option. Our online quote gives you a price in a few minutes, with no commitment.
