Kandahar returns to "la Verte des Houches" with two Men's Alpine Ski World Cup events: two slaloms, Saturday and Sunday. Two races and entertainment, a world event not to be missed!
The Alpine Ski World Cup, a mythical ski race, has become the biggest event in the Chamonix Valley and contributes greatly to the good reputation of the resort. The race is part of the reference races such as the Wengen and Kitzbuhel descents. The Green slope of Les Houches is the only downhill slope in the Haute Savoie department, homologated "Men's World Cup", a unique and precious privilege.
The Piste Verte des Houches is only "Green" in name. The piste is bordered by fir trees and is oriented from the sun to offer a frozen piste, with green colours, from which it takes its name.
The Piste Verte des Houches is in fact a black piste with a difference in altitude of 870 m and 3343 metres in length. The best skiers in the world can ski down it in two minutes. A series of highly technical passages and jumps, including the Break and the Goulet, guarantee that this descent is one of the most beautiful in the world. It is the only downhill run of the "Men's World Cup" circuit approved by the FIS in the department.

Le Refuge du Montenvers is part of the Best Mont-Blanc group, a major and historic player in the Chamonix hotel industry.
The Mont Blanc Marathon is a trail event with 8 races. Several courses are proposed to runners from all over the world to participate with family or friends.
More than 10,500 runners of 80 different nationalities will have the joy of setting off from Chamonix to cover the trails of the Valley.
The Mont-Blanc Marathon races are organised by the Association of Sports Clubs of Chamonix. Under the name Marathon du Mont-Blanc, 8 races are organised: 90 km du Mont-Blanc, 42 km du Mont-Blanc, 23 km du Mont-Blanc, KM Vertical du Mont-Blanc, Starry Duet, Young Race Marathon, 10 km du Mont-Blanc Blanc and Mini Cross du Mont-Blanc (800m to 3 km reserved for children according to their age category).
During 4 days, the Chamonix valley will vibrate to the rhythm of the races, 40 000 people will be present in Chamonix to attend or participate in this event, and everything is done to welcome the runners and the spectators in the best conditions. The event has become considerable in just a few years, however, the organisation is associative (non-profit making) and relies on volunteers and the will of the local authorities.
With races taking place in the mountains in a sometimes difficult environment (notably the 90 km of Mont-Blanc), the runners must be aware of this particularity and prepare themselves properly. Each runner can find a race adapted to his level of practice that allows him to discover this unique environment that is the Chamonix-Mont-Blanc valley.
Chamonix saw the birth of the Cosmojazz festival in the summer of 2010, with the idea of sharing an extraordinary human adventure with contemplators from all walks of life, discovering incredible landscapes, dizzying travel and cosmic sounds, all in a friendly atmosphere.
CONCERTS AT ALTITUDE
High altitude concerts take place during the day on sites chosen by the festival for the majestic scenery and exceptional panoramas they offer to lovers of contemplation. The concerts fit in as naturally as possible and the artists who perform there are programmed according to the location and the music that each natural context inspires the organisers, nourished by the desire to share with visitors a sensation of elevation in the air of the Alps and music.
The concerts are free of charge, but spectators have the opportunity to support the festival by buying souvenirs: bracelets, glasses, T-shirts, etc. As a kind of souvenir and to say "we were there" and "we support".
Access to the sites is generally via the ski lifts and these are subject to a charge. Spectators are asked to get there by counting the necessary travel time, which is advised on the festival website. For each concert at altitude, a "bad weather" solution will be considered. These will be communicated via the festival website and facebook.
CONCERTS CHAMONIX CENTRE
In the early evening, from 5pm, it's time for the concerts in the Chamonix centre! The Parc Couttet becomes the focal point of the festival, hosting the large covered stage from Wednesday 25th to Sunday 29th for concerts from 5pm to 11pm. In this verdant location in the heart of Chamonix, opposite the Maison des Artistes, you can also enjoy the Cosmojazz village with bars, small restaurants and the festival merchandising shop.
The Mont-Blanc Trailers and the French, Italian and Swiss municipalities of the Mont-Blanc region invite you to an extraordinary adventure: go around Mont-Blanc individually in one step, crossing 3 countries!
The Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc® invites you to experience an extraordinary adventure by participating in one of the 7 events on offer.
The Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc® - the "queen" and original race: 171 km & 10,300 m D + - 2,300 runners!
" Mountain event, with numerous passages at altitude (> 2500m), in climatic conditions that can be very difficult (night, wind, cold, rain or snow), requiring very good training, adapted equipment and a real capacity for personal autonomy. It is 6pm and there are more than 2300 of us sharing the same dream: to go around the Mont-Blanc in less than two days. Each of us has prepared ourselves carefully over many months.
Despite the enormity of the event, we are serene because we know that nearly 2000 volunteers are taking part in the same adventure, ready to offer their passion and help in a spirit of sharing and friendship. We are going to live a timeless adventure!
In the moonlight, we will rub the Aiguille de Bionnassay and cross the Col du Bonhomme. At sunrise, we will cross the Col de la Seigne and enter Italy in the magic of the Val Veni dominated by the Noire de Peuterey and the glaciers coming down from Mont Blanc. Then comes the Val Ferret, guarded by the Dent du Géant and the Grandes Jorasses before finally passing through Switzerland and savouring its carefully preserved environment. We will have to endure fatigue, overcome our doubts and anxieties. Some of us, having pushed their limits to the extreme, will prefer to stop while keeping the hope to finish the full lap next time. The others will cross Bovine and Tseppes. Then, facing the Aiguille Verte, the vertical Drus and the majesty of the Mont Blanc, they will dive to the finish in the heart of Chamonix.
Whatever happens, we will all meet again on Sunday afternoon to celebrate the winners, applaud the last arrivals even more and share, runners and volunteers together, our joys, sufferings and emotions.
