Vars Mountain Trail

24 to 26 July 2026

Join us on 24, 25 and 26 July 2026 for the 12th edition of the Vars Mountain Trail. On the programme, 5 mountain foot races open to all are waiting for you to give the best of yourself.

Vars Mountain Trail

12th edition

Last year, 1150 runners challenged the mountain with 5 race formats over two days. For this 2026 edition, the challenge will take place over 3 days, from 24 to 26 July 2026, so you can enjoy three 100% challenging days in Vars! We hope to see many of you there to take up the challenge! Stay tuned for the registration deadline in November.

For the occasion, the resort of Vars is offering a real tour of the area, with a variety of high altitude routes to help you discover the area in its most beautiful light.

Every year, runners are unanimous at the finish line: the incredible scenery (almost) makes you forget the demands and efforts made on certain sections of the course.

Are you ready to experience this pure mountain trail?
