About this event
The Montroux Trail Festival brings together alpine trail running and live music in a distinctive celebration near Lake Geneva. The flagship Crossing Switzerland traverses multiple cantons over 390km, while shorter routes like the Crossing Rocks offer accessible options through the Swiss Riviera's landscapes. What sets this festival apart is its blend of endurance sport with a festive atmosphere inspired by the Montreux Jazz Festival — expect live performances along the trails and evening celebrations like the legendary Freddie's Night. With distances from 8km to ultra-distance adventures, plus relay formats for teams, it's a festival that celebrates both the challenge of mountain running and the joy of shared experience in the Alps.
