The 21 km race at Trail du Petit Saint-Bernard is the TGE, a mountain trail run based in Seez covering 21.42 km with 1,256 m of elevation gain. It is part of a two-day high-altitude trail weekend that includes a 5 km vertical race and ultras up to approximately 68 km. The 21 km option offers a significant alpine challenge without the commitment of the longest distances.
The event is positioned as the final high-altitude trail race of the season, featuring technical terrain and a purist atmosphere distinct from road races. The schedule includes steep formats such as the Verticale du Bonhomme, ascending 895 m over 5.01 km, alongside glacier-valley and ultra routes. Contingency courses are noted for certain longer distances, indicating the expected mountain conditions organizers plan to handle.
