The course is designed with two primary loop lengths, 5 km and 2 km, meaning most races are formed by combining these loops over the same terrain rather than distinct point-to-point courses. The event promotes the idea that cross-country running can be more enjoyable than the school version many recall. Solo runners, men's, women's, and mixed relay teams, youth participants, and small children are all included in the day's schedule.

Lavy des Cimes sends runners directly up the mountain from Viuz-la-Chiésaz, a village near Annecy in Haute-Savoie.

The primary uphill race covers about 4.6 to 4.7 km. Additionally, the family aspect of the event includes a 1.9 km Funky Trail for children and pairs, a short Funky Vertical, and a biathlon introduction for ages 10 and up. The courses traverse the slopes above the village, offering views toward the Aravis, the Bauges, and Mont Blanc when conditions permit. The race originated in memory of Gaël, and this founding principle continues to influence the event. It serves not only as a challenging climb for specialists but also as a community day for families, young runners, mountain enthusiasts, and individuals seeking a brisk winter exertion. The Funky Trail and Funky Vertical have been established components for some time, and the first Saturday in December is integral to the race's established schedule.
