About the race

Test yourself against a global community of trail runners and take part in the UTMB® Virtual 170, a serious ultra-challenge over 170km with 10,000 meters of elevation gain. Based on the pinnacle UTMB® race, runners can complete the distance over several goes or in one go from anywhere in the world. The real-time ranking will allow you to run against trail runners from across the globe and to celebrate your achievements together in a fun and dynamic way.

And there is even a chance to be on the start line in Chamonix in 2021, as three finishers of the UTMB® Virtual 170 will be awarded a place at the UTMB® race of the 2021 UTMB® Mont-Blanc through a virtual draw.

Support WWF

Since 2019, UTMB® has collaborated with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) to balance outdoor activities with the environmental issues of the territories. Together we develop and promote alternative solutions for the entire trail running industry in relation to food consumption, transport, waste minimization and public awareness.

Entry into the UTMB® Virtual 170 race is free, but we invite you to donate the amount of your choice to support WWF projects.
