Have you ever set foot on Mont Dardon? No? Well, this is the opportunity to discover this wild corner and to tackle this summit perched at an altitude of 506 m! From the start in the Arroux valley, you will go through meadows, narrow paths, rocks, and these natural slopes that will make you sweat like never before. But don't worry, the streams, the embankments and the slightly vicious descents will spice things up. And the landscapes? Pine forests, endless pastures, remote hamlets... a dream setting to help you forget the pain for a while.
What you'll find there:
• Your future favorite playground!
• Refreshments at km 6.5 for the Rando Trail and the Petit Dardon, at km 11 and 18 for the Grand Dardon and a post-race buffet just the way we like them! (think about your eco-cup lying around in the closet!).
• A great team, always ready to give you a helping hand and encourage you.
Why you should absolutely participate:
• To surpass yourself and push your limits, seriously.
• Breathe the fresh air in good company!
• The 27 km event is a UTMB index race.
• Participate in the team challenge: 2 runners, regardless of gender, each on one of the 2 distances (12 km or 27 km). The team ranking is done by adding the places of each member. The lower the total, the more chances you have of winning. Bonus: Each female reduces the team total by 10 points.
Whether you're here to excel or just to enjoy the great outdoors, one thing is certain: you're going to have some memorable memories. So, are you up for the challenge? 👊
