Adidas TERREX Maxi-Race 2027

A maxi race, with maximum thrills and elevation gain 😎. It's made for you, isn't it? 🤪

In the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, in Haute-Savoie, in Annecy ⛰️, take on the Adidas TERREX Maxi-Race 2027 which is THE Annecy trail par excellence 👑, a very popular event with the Lake Annecy as a backdrop 🤩. Its name hints at a big party ahead, but you'll have to wait until the end of the race if you want to tear rip it all up! 🥳

Saying the program is packed is an understatement 😅 : 5 different distances are offered, no less ! Come on, let's go, take notes 📝 : kids' and teens' races 🧒, a 20 km 100% women's race (girl power 💪) or 100% men's race, a 42 km, a 55 km, the classic 100 km solo (over one or two days) or in a charity relay for duos or sporty trios. So have you chosen your dish ? 🍽️

The races take place at the end of May. Spring weather expected ? 🌸 Not really 😬. This is the mountains ! While climbing, you might even tread across a few snowy peaks ❄️, so prepare well, the cocktail 🍸 of top-level competition 🥇 and changing temperatures should not be taken lightly 🫡. More than the lake, it's your legs that might catch fire! 💥

If you take on a long distance, a headlamp is a must 🔦 : even if you're an early riser, it hurts 💤. All the routes have the Lake Annecy as scenery 🏞️. But the landscapes that follow are not to be outdone : steep mountains, climbs through the woods 🌲, rocky passages 🪨 or in the snow and even a few strides through the mud 🫠. Anything is possible ! Are you expecting a typical high-mountain environment ⛰️ ? You got it ! 😆 Wide meadows, fir forests, ridges and a fascinating view of Mont Blanc, your eyes will also be on fire seeing so many wonders ✨. You will also pass through some emblematic local spots : Roc Lancrenaz, Doussard and Le Semnoz.

For the atmosphere, fire is in the spotlight with smoke flares at the start 🎇, candles and torches to guide you through the night 🕯️. Since we hide nothing from each other, we'll admit it : around the lake, it's for the living, a little bit of hell at Lake Annecyyyyyyyy 🎶. It's a real physical and technical challenge ! But you won't always be alone, supporters will be there to cheer you on 👏.

After burning the calories 🥵, it will be time to set the table on fire 🔥. Annecy is known for its many typical restaurants with, of course, cheese specialties 🧀 : tartiflette, croziflette or even fondue (that's it, we're hungry !) 🤤. Beware of the forfeit ! Let yourself also be tempted by the Gâteau de Savoie, a must-try of the local gastronomy 🥮.

The Pearl of the Alps opens up access to its most beautiful jewels: its landscapes and its maxi-races! 🥰
