The formula of the Trail du Saint-Jacques by UTMB which gathers the most runners.
To note, a new starting site in the pretty village of Monistrol d'Allier, more prestigious and more practical. 2 km to stretch the peloton before climbing to the Chapelle de Rochegude. A new course slightly lengthened, tonic and varied, an excellent compromise.
In the final part, the ascent of the Mont Devès before heading to the Chibottes. A rugged course around the route of Santiago de Compostela, before an exceptional finish after a last climb to the famous Notre-Dame du Puy-en-Velay cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
