Haute Route made history by bringing the fun to Zwift with Haute Route Watopia 2020. And now they’re doing it again. Say hello to Haute Route Watopia 2021. Three challenging stages in back-to-back days, from February 26–28. You in?

STAGE 2
Catch us in downtown Watopia, as we take off across Ocean Blvd for the second stage of the series. With a number of KOMs packed inside fun, fast loops—before wrapping up at the Epic KOM Reverse Summit—you’ll be spending a lot of time in, and out, of the saddle.

Distance: 33 mi // 53 km
Elevation: 4,300 ft // 1,300 m

STAGE 3
Answer the call of the wild and hammer through the sequoias of Titans Grove and the sandy stretches of Fuego Flats. Save some gas in the tank to finish strong with the final Alpe du Zwift climb. With perseverance and pacing, you’ll reach the banner at the summit. Then take a bow.

Distance: 28.5 mi // 45.9 km
Elevation: 5,522 ft // 1,683 m

To perform at your max across three challenging stages, you need to be fuelled correctly. Luckily, Haute Route’s official nutrition partner, OTE, has put together a stage-by-stage fuelling guide specifically tailored for the demands of Haute Route Watopia 2021. You’ll find this, as well as a wealth of Zwift tips and information in the official Rider’s Roadbook for the event. For more information, and to download it, visit the Haute Route website.
