Example of a program for a 3-day trail running course
Day 1 - COL DES DARDS. 1600m elevation gain / 20km
A crossing of the Aiguilles Rouges via the famous lake
White before climbing off-trail technically towards
the Col des Dards, offering a magnificent view of the Massif
of Mont Blanc.
Day 2 - MONT BUET (3096m!), loop via Cheval Blanc.
22KM / 2100m elevation gain
The ascent of Mont-Buet, too
called the Mont Blanc of the ladies is often considered
as a major objective of the season. It is presented here as a technical traverse, in a lunar landscape offering a view
A 360° view of the entire northern Alps. Be warned, this route requires a good deal of concentration and may sometimes involve some arm exertion. A more accessible version is available.
Day 3 AIGUILLE DU GÉNÉPI 1600M+ / 13KM
Today's objective: to conquer the glaciers! The first part of the climb is via a glacial moraine to the Albert 1er high mountain refuge, before scrambling up to the Aiguille du Génépi, offering a breathtaking view of the glaciers, in front of and behind us!
Info
For this skyrunning trail running course, I don't propose a specific route in advance. The idea is to take advantage of the free transport in the Chamonix Valley and adapt each day to discover the most beautiful route possible, taking into account the constraints of the natural environment.

My motivation to
offer this internship
"Skyrunning, this discipline halfway between trail running and mountaineering, is for me synonymous with adventure and discovery. It's the most beautiful way to gain altitude to contemplate and marvel. The mineral world of high altitudes leaves no one indifferent. These suspended moments are among my most beautiful alpine memories, and I want to share them safely ."
