About Us
Tired of paved roads? You’re right. Trail running is totally for you. The XTRAIL Asics trail running series is the start of a new crazy adventure. In fact, trail running is growing fast in Quebec for a little while. With a little bit of catching-up to do with our southern neighbours and Europe in these kind of events, we still have the chance to have lots of magnificent trails, mountains, national parks and landscapes that will make a great success out of this newborn discipline.
More than 1000 racers participated in 2010 at the Xtrail Mont Orford and more than 700 at Sutton! Will you be one of them in 2011?
The XTRAIL organization invites you to amazing courses on hiking trails, cross-country skiing trails, alpine ski hills, mountain tops, roots, rocks, mud, snow…With two major events at Mt. Sutton and Mt Orford in the magnificient area of the Eastern Townships, Quebec, CANADA, we will
give you all sorts of emotion with distances of 21K, 10K, 5K and 1K (approximative distances) NO need to be a strong experienced runner. The only desire to accomplish something exhiliarating and live a unique experience will suffice.
