The Grande Odyssée Savoie Mont Blanc

Wednesday 9th January 2008 : 17h30 !


This fabulous dog-sledge race will see the world’s best mushers (dog-sledge drivers) facing each other in the heart of the Portes du Soleil. A long distance race in the style of the legendary Yukon Quest and Iditarod, the Grande Odyssée is physically very challenging and necessitates an optimal level of preparation for both dogs and mushers. It alternates endurance and speed races, with important climbs that can very hard technically if climate conditions prove difficult.
