A look back at the craziest race in the country!
1850 of you lined up for the 3rd edition of the Grand Prix de Serre Chevalier!
But what is the Grand Prix?
Halfway between a derby, a rally, an enduro, an orienteering race and a mud-day assault course, the Grand Prix de Serre Chevalier is an explosive cocktail that makes it an extraordinary event.
Created in 1986, relaunched in a revamped version in 2017, it has since become the world's most popular amateur ski race!
And what's more, you don't have to be a great champion to take part! The magic of this event is its "popular race" aspect and its "good-natured" spirit.
All ages and styles come together at the start, with as many experienced skiers as Sunday skiers, not forgetting the Tuesday snowboarders, and of course a special mention for those who come in disguise! Some are in it for the win, others for the fun, but all make it to the finish line with a smile on their face.
Participants choose to be Gentle or Crazy, and let themselves be surprised by the creativity and craziness of the courses that stretch across the entire ski area. Any identified sliding object (ski, snowboard, telemark, monoski, snowscoot, tandem...) can take part in LA COURSE LA + FOLLE DU PAYS! To set the tone, every year the organizers have fun inventing wacky events such as the legendary "shitty combined", the "embarrassing parallel" or the mythical "Operation Jackson".
