ASICS Pierra Menta Été
ASICS Pierra Menta Été is a three-day skyrunning event in Arêches-Beaufort held for teams of two. The team format combines short distances with very large positive elevation gains across three stages, following routes related to the winter Pierra Menta ski-alpinism race.
The main format covers 70 km total with 7000 m of positive elevation gain, approximately 23 km and 2300 m of ascent per day. Two registration formulas are offered with different services included: an all-inclusive package and a basic package. The all-inclusive option lists a price per team and includes full board accommodation from Thursday evening to Sunday midday, on-course refreshments, runner gifts, the event closing meal, access to physiotherapists and podologists and Compex massage services, and multi-risk insurance. The basic option includes race entry, refreshments, runner gifts, the closing meal, and access to the same recovery services.
Other race formats on the program include a solo skyrun on the Grand Mont and a new vertical race from the village with very steep slopes.
