Run The Wild Intermediate Alps 2022

23 September 2022 - 25 September 2022

Chamonix is a must for any trail runner. The town sits at the foot of the majestic snow covered peak of Mont Blanc, standing 4810m tall. The valley hosts the world famous UTMB (Ultra-Trail du Mont Blanc) race series and is a mecca for any outdoor enthusiast. The buzz of the town and the beauty of the trails provide an inspiring backdrop to the Intermediate Alps trip.

This weekend follows on from the Introduction to the Alps, and is perfect for those looking to build on their mountain experience and ability. You will be on the trails for most of the day, stopping for a picnic lunch on route. This enables you to explore higher trails above the Chamonix valley which offer awe inspiring views.

Each day your guide will look at advancing your techniques on uphills and downhills, making you a more proficient trail runner. Along the way, the wild is brought to life, with information about the local history, flora, fauna and geography. The guides are all experienced trail runners, often ranking in local and world trail events, as well as undertaking solo adventures. So, this makes an excellent opportunity to ask questions and get some inside tips on how to succeed on alpine trails.

Runners can select Trees not Tees during registration in place of receiving their t-shirt.
