Departure and arrival are at the UTCC Village.
​
Runners start with an easy section of 3 km before climbing Mont-Olivine (670 m) who has an exceptional view on the Chic-Chocs. From there, you head towards La Serpentine, climb the Grande Cuve of Mont-Albert west to then head to the ravito La Paruline where you'll reach the halfway point.
​
For the return, you backtrack to the Versant junction to take the direction of the summit of Mont-Albert (1088 m). You cross the plateau and end your course with a 6.5 km descent leading to the UTCC Village.
​
Runners will climb a total of 3 summits ranging from medium to very technical trails.
ALTERNATIVE COURSE
As the UTCC takes place in protected caribou habitat, a vulnerable species, the course of the event may be modified in the case of an area closure due to the presence of individuals on the trail.
