Other trail races within 99 miles
A 96 km nocturnal ultra from Allevard to Aiguebelle through the wild northern reaches of the Belledonne massif. Starting at midnight, the race plunges into high mountain terrain and the famous Moretan Pass — a notoriously challenging climb equipped with fixed ropes for the firn crossing. The course links remote valleys and highland ridges before descending to the finish at Aiguebelle. A race for experienced trail runners who want the adventure of the Belledonne without a second night — but still demanding enough to have a 60% finish rate.
