Starting from Millau, the course will take the participants through the superb Causses landscapes, along a 145km course alternating rustic roads, rolling tracks, single-track, undergrowth and forest paths.
If the Grands Causses territory should charm the runners by its diversity, the course remains no less difficult. Indeed, it will be necessary to climb many difficulties to reach the finish line located under the Millau Viaduct. A strong technique and a solid physical condition will be required to hope to qualify for the world championships.
