Decades of single track dedication

A passion project turned into a global festival

Chloë’s mission is to offer an inspiring & educational experience to the trail & mountain running community. We share stories, expertise, quality content, latest research, experience, struggles, sweat, laughs and special moments.

An opportunity to learn and thrive !

Meet runners from around the globe

Vibrant with energy !

The fest is designed with passion, a weekend filled with excitement in a fun, cozy and non-competitive atmosphere. We bring a team of international and humble speakers & elite runners to share their love, expertise, and experience- success & challenges.

The fest is about people, learning, and to be a stride forward

To share my passions is part of my DNA
