Terreno

Chamonix is the starting point of the Tour du Mont Blanc, the route that gave rise to the UTMB, and offers the most demanding alpine trail in France: elevation gains of over 2,000 m per stage, technical high mountain terrain, and direct views of the Mont Blanc massif. Annecy, 130 km to the north, combines mountains with a glacial lake of turquoise waters, allowing routes that alternate alpine ridges and lakeshore, with slightly less extreme but equally spectacular profiles.

The safe high-mountain window runs from June to September, when passes and ridges are free of snow. July and August concentrate the bulk of the calendar, with UTMB in late August and Maxi-Race and Marathon du Mont-Blanc in June-July. Outside that window, snow can close the highest sections even in midsummer during years with late thaw.

Cultura del trail

Chamonix is ground zero for world trail running: the UTMB was born here in 2003, and every August the UTMB World Series final is held here, with tens of thousands of spectators in the village centre. Annecy, less than two hours away by car, has built its own trail identity around the Maxi-Race and the Marathon du Mont-Blanc, leveraging a lake that is already one of France's most visited tourist destinations. The region has Europe's highest density of technical mountain gear shops, with Chamonix as the undisputed capital of alpine equipment.
