Run The Alps

Our mission? Find the absolute best trail running experiences in the Swiss, French, and Italian Alps. Away from the crowds, in high Alp villages, we’ll seek out those runs that are a bit quieter, a bit wilder, and bring together the very best the Alps have to offer. Whether a one-hour jaunt to a local hut or an all-day adventure over ridges, peaks and pastures, Run the Alps offers organized and self-guided tours through some of the most dramatic scenery anywhere on earth. The Alps are also internationally-known for some of the most exciting trail races, anywhere. Interested in checking one out? There’s a trail race every weekend, from May through October. From Sierre-Zinal to Swissalpine to Eiger Ultra to Zermatt’s Ultraks, we can help pick the event that’s right for you. Trail running is as much about camaraderie as it is personal challenge. We look forward to helping you plan your adventure, and hope to see you on the trail! Join us on Facebook, follow us on Instagram, and sign up for our newsletter.
