Distance
Terrain
Odysséa Val d'Isère takes place in the alpine resort of Val-d'Isère in the Savoie department of France, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The programme is built around a single short trail of 9 km run on the mountain paths above the resort, with magnificent views over the surrounding peaks. The event is mixed and open to runners of all levels, and it doubles as a fundraiser, with the money collected going to a local breast cancer charity. Runners must be able to show a valid athletics licence or a valid PPS medical certificate on the day. The most recent edition, held on 6 July 2025, saw 350 finishers.
