Departure and arrival are at the UTCC Village.
​
The runners start with an easy 3 km section before climbing Mont-Olivine (670 m) with its exceptional view of the Chic-Chocs. From there, you head towards La Serpentine, climb the Grande Cuve ouest du Mont-Albert, cross its plateau and descend Mont-Albert by the north face.
​
This last 6.5 km descent will lead you to the finish line at the UTCC Village.
​
There is nothing like the mythical Mont-Albert to give you a real taste of trail running!
ALTERNATIVE PATHWAY
The UTCC takes place in the protected area of caribou habitat, a vulnerable species, so the race course could be modified if a sector is closed due to the presence of individuals on the trail.
