Non-competitive event in complete autonomy
We also remind you that this is a non-competitive event, therefore a ranking will not be drawn up in order of time and there is no prize (other than glory) for the fastest athletes.
As per regulation, it is essential to check the weather before going on the trail, make sure you have all the necessary equipment to spend several hours in the high mountains, even in extreme conditions.

It is an individual and autonomous training, without any assistance or responsibility from the organization of the La Thuile Trail. Finally, there are no refreshment points or water points along the route.

Make a donation in memory of Edo

To remember and pay homage to Edo, a friend who lived on sports, we also invite you to donate a small sum to the Associazione Sport Per Tutti ( ASperT ) of Courmayeur via the link http://gf.me/u/yh2haf .

The ASPerT association offers children with disabilities or with socio-economic problems sport as a tool to gain confidence in their abilities and grow on a personal level!

Have fun on the trails of the La Thuile Trail. The Challenge has started!
