A fast, popular 42 km trail through Charlevoix's boreal forest — sells out every year
The UTHC 42 Classic is one of the most popular distances in the series, consistently selling out ahead of other events. This 42.7 km linear trail balances speed and technicality, winding through boreal forests, past serene lakes, and along trails frequented by hawks, beavers, porcupines, and moose. Compared to the more technical 42 Saint-Siméon course, the Classic is faster and more accessible — an ideal choice for runners taking on a longer trail distance for the first time.
