A Rugged 125 km Ultra-Trail Adventure in the Charlevoix Wilderness

Experience the challenge and beauty of the 125 km Ultra-Trail Harricana of Canada™, a remote and authentic ultra-trail deep in the Canadian wilderness. This linear course takes you through the stunning mountains, lakes, rivers, and boreal forests of the Charlevoix region. With most of the trail being technical singletrack, interspersed with rocks and roots, staying focused from start to finish is essential. The course blends technical sections with rolling terrain, creating a rigorous yet runnable challenge.

Technical and Diverse Trails in the Boreal Forests

The trail is as diverse as it is demanding. From the technical climbs at the start to smoother rolling sections later on, runners will navigate a variety of terrains. Whether you're tackling steep ascents or descending through dense forest paths, this course will test both your endurance and adaptability.

Summiting Four Majestic Peaks

Throughout the journey, runners summit four stunning peaks:

• Mount Lac-à-l'Empêche – The first challenge that sets the tone for the race.
• Mount Morios – Famous for its breathtaking views of the Charlevoix region.
• Mount Noyée – Resembling the profile of a woman floating on water, adding a mystical touch to your run.
• Montagne Noire – The final peak before the descent towards the finish line at the Grand-Fonds ski resort area.

The Challenge

This ultra-trail is not for the faint of heart. Since the event's inception in 2016, only about half of the participants have managed to cross the finish line. The combination of technical terrain, unpredictable weather, and physical demands makes this one of the most challenging races in trail running Quebec.
