Menthon Raid is a non-timed multisport race in Menthon-Saint-Bernard, a village on Lake Annecy in Haute-Savoie, France. It takes place in October and includes lake swimming, trail running, bike-and-run, road running, walking, and shorter courses for children and juniors. The event is structured as a pairs challenge, with options from 450 metres to 17.9 km, making it a shared outdoor raid rather than a typical solo road race.

Food, drinks, and an evening open to all maintain the day's social atmosphere after the competition concludes.
