Reading the route
Tor des Géants is a loop of over 330 km around the Aosta Valley, through the Grand Paradiso park and the Mont Avic park. The start, in Courmayeur, runs in two waves, at 10 am and noon.
The trail first passes Valgrisenche, then climbs to Col du Lauson, at 3,261 m — the highest point of the whole loop.
It then crosses Fenêtre de Champorcher, drops down to Donnas, in the valley, before climbing back up toward Valtournenche.
The trail still passes Oyace and Saint-Rhémy before closing the loop at Courmayeur. Runners get a hundred and fifty hours to complete this full tour.
