The Odyssea race, which has been running for 20 years and is now held in 14 towns, is returning to La Plagne for the 4th time.
Welcome to the Odyssea La Plagne 2024, a day dedicated to solidarity, health and the fight against breast cancer. Join us in the magnificent setting of La Plagne for a unique running experience combining sport, community and a noble cause.
Running for a good cause
On Wednesday March 6th 2024, meet at 3.15 pm in Belle Plagne for a new snow race "Odysséa - La Plagne".
Four options are available to you:
- 1 km children's "Je cours pour Maman" - aged between 5 and 12 - cost €8

Organised for 18 years and now in 14 cities, the Odyssea runs and walks raise funds to support the fight against breast cancer. Since its creation in 2002, the association has already donated more than 8.5 million euros thanks to the participation of 840,000 participants. Odyssea wishes to inform, raise awareness and involve people by offering them the opportunity to participate in these 1, 5 or 9 km running or walking events. As part of the development of its snow races, it seemed obvious to Odyssea to associate itself with La Plagne, "heart resort" for Gustave Roussy.
Institut Gustave Roussy
The recipient of the funds raised by events like the Odyssea race and a partner of our resort, the Gustave Roussy Institute, is Europe’s leading centre in the fight against cancer.
