Gypa Race by Movement
Gypa'Race
The Gypa'Race is a night-time vertical ski mountaineering race. The principle is simple: climb the 800m ascent to the summit of the Pas-de-Maimbré as quickly as possible. A formidable test, a real sporting challenge, no respites and no gifts, a pure climb in one go.
The race will take place partly on a forest road and partly on the Les Masques ski run, right in the heart of the Anzère ski area. The aim is to give all ski mountaineering fans the chance to end their day on a sporting note with a night race.
For sports enthusiasts, but also for hikers, nature lovers and daredevils...for those who like a challenge!
