Verbier Marathon 4000
Verbier Marathon 4000 – 45km – 4000m D+ becomes the main race!
For this year the additional 600m to Mt Rogneux is now fully part of the main race and the shorter route becomes the alternative. Both Marathons start in Liddes and the main race will continue up to the top of Mt Rogneux (3084m). The trail then goes down alongside some mountain lakes to reach the Brunet hut where the race continues towards Panossières, with its suspension bridge and its glaciers. At the end of the trail, you’ll still have to face the wall: the Lourtier-La Chaux ascent to be allowed to go down to Verbier and pass the finish line.
Verbier Marathon 44km – 3600m D+
After the first big ascent up to Mille Hut if you are too late for the cut off to go to Mt Rogneux, or simply if you choose to avoid it, you go directly to the Brunet hut, where you rejoin the main Verbier Marathon 4000. Then you go to the Avouillons pass to reach the bottom of the Grand Combin, its glacier and the Panossière hut. Crossing the suspension bridge will be the hottest spot of this section. By the end of the race you will still have to face “the wall”, the Lourtier – La Chaux uphill in order to be able to run down to Verbier.
