Alpine Trail Running Weekend 2027

Fri 23rd July 2027 - Sun 25th July 2027

Four people run on a trail through a mountainous landscape on a sunny day. They wear running gear and carry hydration packs. Snow-capped peaks and lush green valleys are in the background, and the sky is clear blue. Wildflowers dot the grassy terrain. A picturesque village scene with vibrant red flowers in the foreground, a church with a tall steeple in the center, surrounded by traditional buildings. Green hills and mountains provide a scenic backdrop under a partly cloudy blue sky. A panoramic view of a mountainous landscape under a clear blue sky. Snow-capped peaks tower in the background, while lush green valleys and scattered rustic cabins dot the foreground hills. A walking path meanders through the grassy slope in the lower left corner. A diverse group of people in athletic gear pose for a photo on a bridge with a scenic mountain backdrop. They are smiling, appearing ready for an outdoor adventure. The scene includes a picturesque village with charming buildings and a church tower. A scenic mountain landscape with a vibrant meadow of wildflowers in the foreground, featuring purple, yellow, and white blossoms. Snow-capped peaks and a clear blue sky provide a stunning backdrop, with a wooden cabin and green trees nestled in the hills. A group of hikers walks through a lush green meadow with tall evergreen trees on the right. Impressive, rugged rocky peaks dominate the background under a clear blue sky. Small patches of snow are visible on the mountainside. A group of hikers with backpacks walks down a grassy meadow dotted with yellow and purple wildflowers. The sky is bright blue with scattered clouds, and evergreen trees can be seen in the background. Two hikers, one man and one woman, descend a narrow mountain trail surrounded by green hills and wildflowers. Both wear athletic clothing and caps. The woman leads with arms out for balance, while the man follows close behind. Snow-capped peaks and a clear blue sky are in the background. A lone mountain biker rides along a grassy ridge with a breathtaking view of towering, snow-capped peaks in the background. The sky is clear, highlighting the majestic mountain scenery. A group of people dressed in athletic wear standing outdoors, posing with a banner that reads "Run the Wild." Snow-capped mountains and a lake are visible in the background under a clear blue sky. The group appears to be celebrating or commemorating an event. A woman is running on a narrow mountain trail, wearing a hydration vest, orange tank top, and purple shorts. She's smiling and making a hand gesture with both hands. The background features green hills under a clear blue sky with a few other runners behind her.

Organiser's Description

On this weekend getaway in the Alps we feature stunning trail runs through alpine meadows covered with a kaleidoscope of wild flowers and breathtaking views over the Mont Blanc Massif. Saint Gervais Les Bains is a beautiful alpine French town, with its cute cafe’s and bakeries, located at the foot of Mont Blanc. It’s famous for its thermal springs, Tramway du Mont Blanc (used by climbers looking to summit the mountain) and its vast area of alpine meadows which are popular for skiing in winter. You will be staying at the brand new Le Saint Gervais Hotel.

This is a great follow on trip for those that have completed our Introduction to the Alps or Running & Yoga or Trails in the Alps trips, but you don’t need any prior experience of running in the Alps to take part. You will be on the trails both mornings and we will be featuring a local cheese and wine tasting on the mountain side on one of the days, aswell as a post run yoga class which will will be tailored for trail runners and suitable for all levels. We will use uplift to get access to some breathtaking trails above the nearby village of Les Contamines.

Our experienced trail running guides will be offering trail running techniques to enable you to run more confidently in this alpine environment. On the Friday evening the group meets for dinner with the Run the Wild Team at the hotel. It’s a great weekend to make new friends and enjoy alpine trail running at its best. As with all Run the Wild holidays, all you have to do is book your flights, turn up and run – we will take care of the rest!

A deposit of £250 is taken at the time of sign-up with the balance taken 3 months before the trip is due to start. Let us know if you prefer to schedule payments following your deposit. Full price is £720.
