You’ve skied, boarded and almost certainly sledged on snow, but have you ever tried running on it?
The latest idea from the 3 Valleys, where mountain biking over snow is popular up at Val Thorens is an all new over-snow running race to be staged next March.
The Yeti Race, which will take place on the slopes of Les Menuires, will be a 20km long trail running endurance event aimed at teams of two.
Not just a straight forward mountain marathon type race either as competitors will need to use their skills of precision, strength, agility and endurance as well as orienteering to successfully complete this friendly race.
The Yeti Race is scheduled to take place on March 13th 2016 and packages priced at 130€/person (about £100) for the weekend which includes two nights accommodation, race bib and skipass for the Saturday is on sale from Les Menuires Réservation. Tel. +33 (0)4 79 00 79 79
