Riders will tackle the infamous Muro de Tunquen

 

 

New York City, September 21, 2023 –  Viña Veramonte, located just outside the capital city of Santiago de Chile, will host the 5th edition of GFNY Chile, where riders will tackle a 127.9km long racecourse with 1832m of climbing, including infamous Muro de Tunquen with its 27% steep wall.

“This year, GFNY opens the Chilean racing season. It’s the southern hemisphere’s ‘La Primavera’, THE spring race,” says GFNY CEO Uli Fluhme. “Nothing compares to the first race of the year after training through the dark winter months. It’s an exhilarating feeling that never disappoints.”

The Expo will take place at the Mall Sport (Central Area) at Las Condes and to complete the incredible GFNY Chile experience, there will be a post race celebration and awards ceremony at the famous winery Casona Viña Veramonte in Casablanca.
