Trails Alpins du Grand Bec

The Champagny-en-Vanoise Tourist Office is organising the 37th Trails Alpins du Grand Bec (TAGB).

These popular races have become one of the must-do events of the Tarentaise summer season.
The Trails Alpins du Grand Bec are foot races on tracks and trails in forests and mountain pastures. In existence for over 30 years, these trails are approved by the French Athletics Federation and entered in the ITRA and UTMB Index.

NEW - The Trail de la Vallaisonnay, new for the 37th edition, uses technical trails to take runners as close as possible to the Vanoise National Park. With a passage to the Golet de la Vallaisonnay at an altitude of 2,796m, the panorama offered is remarkable. On the menu: 41.45km and 3019m of positive ascent through hamlets, mountain pastures, ridges and high mountains.

- The Trail de la Vélière has been modified to take runners along the most beautiful trails in Champagny-en-Vanoise.
The programme starts in the centre of the village for 30km and 2,000m of ascent, culminating at an altitude of over 2,500m and a ridge run of over 2km. This race offers a magnificent mountain route and a sumptuous panorama of the most beautiful peaks in the Vanoise.

- The Trail du Mont de la Guerre is the little brother of the Trail de la Vélière. It's a 15.8km route with a positive gradient of 1033m that passes through forests and mountain pastures for a magnificent view of Champagny-en-Vanoise and the imposing Grand Bec.
