Marathon du Mont-Blanc

90km Ultra Marathon



The most difficult ultramarathon in the category of the Mont Blanc Marathon, the 90km Ultramarathon, is known as one of the most technically difficult trail running routes in France.



The ultramarathon is 90 kilometres in length, with an altitude climb of 6,220 metres, some sections need to be carried out in the snow, coupled with the unusual climatic changes in the mountains, where hot and cold are uncertain, and wind and rain are the norm, you need a wealth of cross-country experience and superior stamina if you want to complete the ultramarathon. Finishing the race will earn you 5 ITRA points.





Marathon du Mont-Blanc

42km full marathon



The Mont Blanc Full Marathon is 42 kilometres long with 2780 metres of elevation gain and a closing time of 9 hours. Finishers receive 2 ITRA points.

Don't underestimate the full marathon, as less than half of the participants finish it every year!




Marathon du Mont-Blanc

Vertical 3.8KM



The Vertical Marathon is a short distance, but it's definitely not as easy as you might think! With a cumulative rise of 1,000 metres over 3.8 kilometres, the course seems to go straight up into the clouds.



In addition to the astounding views of Mont Blanc, you can experience first-hand the perseverance of the trail runners that inspires all to keep going.





Marathon du Mont-Blanc

23km half-marathon


The half-marathon category is 23 kilometres long, with an elevation gain of 1,665 metres, a closing time of five hours and one ITRA point for finishing.




Marathon du Mont-Blanc

10 kilometres



The 10km category has an elevation gain of 325 metres with a small hill in the middle and is highly recommended for entry level runners.





From the toughest 90 kilometre ultramarathons, to verticals that push the boundaries, to semi-inspiring full marathons... This summer, the world's top runners will bring us another marathon feast. We also wish our Chinese runners the best of luck in this year's race!
