Vertical races offer the perfect introduction to skimo racing. Here’s a few of our favorite uphill-only races in the Alps.

Skimo (ski mountaineering) in the winter can be a key component to preparing for the trail running season.

I hadn’t been running much during Europe’s sweltering 2022 summer, and so I liked the looks of the UTMB Wildstrubel® Wild 25 course. It was the shortest distance of the options 110, 70, 50 kilometers.

All told, 2022 was a remarkable year for Run the Alps. We had great trips, guests, and adventures.

Looking back on all of it, we gathered the stories, films, and tours that you enjoyed most.

Run the Alps polled our guides, staff, and trail running friends, about their top Courmayeur picks to create this useful guide specifically for trail runners.
