Ultra Zermatt Marathon 2011

Many runners have been waiting for this unique possibility offered at the 10th anniversary of the race: the Zermatt Marathon leads to the Gornergrat once again. In addition to the Zermatt Marathon where the finish remains at the Riffelberg, we offer the Ultra  Zermatt Marathon. While the runners of the Zermatt Marathon pass the chapel on the Riffelberg and have the finish within reach, the runners of the Ultra Zermatt Marathon will still have exactly 3.4 kilometers and 514 high meters to achieve. The view from the Gornergrat at 3’089 meters is unique and will compensate for all the efforts.

Go on - it's worth it to get hold of one of the 500 starting places of the Ultra Zermatt Marathon.
