The Champagny-en-Vanoise Tourist Office is organising the 38th edition of the Trails Alpins du Grand Bec (TAGB).

These popular races have become a summer staple in Tarentaise.

NEW since 2025 - The Vallaisonnay Trail invites runners to venture onto challenging alpine trails, close to the Vanoise National Park.

A spectacular mountain course offering magnificent views of the iconic peaks of the Vanoise.
