513 races at a glance

We leave! Nearly 30 percent of all Swiss World Cup races to date have been downhill. Because the Super-G only appeared at the World Championships for the first time in 1982, only 55 races have been held in this discipline to date.

The locations in detail

Logically, most of the former Swiss sites are located in the cantons of Bern, Graubünden and Valais. But World Cup races have also been held in the cantons of St. Gallen (Ebnat-Kappel and Wangs-Pizol) and Lucerne (Flühli), albeit at a time when climate change was not yet so advanced.
