THE ULTIMATE REFERENCE IN TRAIL RUNNING
Created in 2003, the UTMB is "the most mythical and prestigious trail running race in the world" with approximately 170 kilometers and 10,000 meters of positive elevation gain around the Mont-Blanc through Italy, Switzerland and France. A race like no other, it transcends the sport, and has established itself as an iconic trail race, renowned worldwide.
No matter the time it takes to finish, whether done in under 20 hours or more than 46, the elite runners as well as amateur runners share the same adventure on the same exceptional course, carried by the stunning beauty of the landscapes and a common goal: to cross the finish line in Chamonix. Much more than a race, it is an introspective adventure which transforms every person that takes on the challenge.
Note: The course (distance and elevation gain) may be adjusted depending on terrain constraints.
