The ultimate trail running event, uniting trail runners from around the world, the HOKA UTMB Mont-Blanc, Finals of the UTMB World Series, brings together in Chamonix the world's top elites, as well as more than 10,000 passionate runners to participate in one of the eight races of the HOKA UTMB Mont-Blanc.

Running around Mont Blanc is above all an inner adventure, a unique experience where each participant will have to draw on their strength and push their mental and physical limits to cross the finish line.

This extraordinary journey in the heart of the massif will allow the trailers to cross valleys and passes in contact with the most beautiful summits, in a unique alpine setting.

To participate or attend the HOKA UTMB Mont-Blanc is to vibrate to the rhythm of the trail planet and to share an extraordinary celebration in the heart of a territory mobilized for the occasion.

Each year, 2,000 volunteers from 15 different countries, as well as the 18 French, Italian and Swiss municipalities of the Mont Blanc region work to ensure the success of the event and support the runners of the HOKA UTMB Mont Blanc. 20,000 supporters come to encourage their loved ones and more than 50,000 spectators visit the show and participate in the activities in all the villages of the Mont Blanc region.

Chianti Ultra Trail by UTMB® is much more than a simple trail running race; it weaves together sport, history, and culture in the heart of Tuscany’s Chianti Storico region.

The hills between Radda, Gaiole, and Castellina in Chianti, with their vineyards, olive groves, and medieval villages, tell centuries of borderland history between the ancient Republics of Florence and Siena, offering athletes a landscape that seems to have emerged from a Renaissance painting.

The various race distances — 10, 20, 46, 75, up to the 120 km Ultra Trail Chianti Castles — follow white gravel roads and paths that once connected castles and historic residences.

An opportunity also to enjoy the local food and wine tradition, with winery visits, tastings of the renowned Chianti Classico, and tours of ancient castles that enhance the cultural heritage of the area.

The event has become a symbol of contemporary Tuscany: a meeting place for runners from all over the world who, through athletic challenge and cultural discovery, celebrate the beauty, history, and flavors of one of Italy’s most iconic regions.
