Junior Walser Trail

A race open to young athletes - aged 14 to 17 - offering an authentic, natural, and motivating trail running experience.

In compliance with the inclusive spirit of UTMB® – which promotes participation of all ages and encourages the younger generation to discover the beauty of trail running – Junior Walser Trail was created to offer young athletes the opportunity to test themselves on the trails, in a positive, fun, and respectful environment.

Junior Walser Trail offers a 9 km route immersed in nature, designed to be accessible yet challenging, allowing participants to enjoy their first running experience in a natural environment. This race celebrates discovery and enthusiasm: running together, challenging oneself, and sharing the joy of movement with peers who share the same passion.

In a world where sport plays a fundamental role in physical and personal development, Junior Walser Trail encourages values such as determination, respect, autonomy, and solidarity. Running in nature becomes an opportunity to strengthen the bond with the local area, to learn about one's limits, and to overcome new challenges with confidence.

Junior Walser Trail is not just a race: it is an important step in introducing the new generation to sport, inspiring a lasting passion and spreading the culture of trail running as an experience of growth, sharing and respect for the environment.
