Saint-Simeon
42km

Deux coureurs sur le parcours technique du 42 km Saint-Siméon de l’Ultra-Trail Harricana, entourés de forêts boréales et de paysages spectaculaires de Charlevoix.

A Technical and Thrilling 42 km Course

The 42 km trail from Saint-Siméon to Mont Grand-Fonds is a challenging and rewarding route designed for experienced trail runners. Its difficulty level and limited exit points in case of withdrawal make it an ideal course for seasoned athletes seeking a true test of their abilities.

Following the Trans Canada trail, this route features mostly singletrack trails, technical terrain, and climbs to several open summits. These high points offer breathtaking and lesser-known views of the region, the St. Lawrence River, and the Charlevoix Palisades.

Classic vs. Saint-Siméon: Two Distinct 42 km Challenges

The 42 km Classic (Saturday) and the 42 km Saint-Siméon (Sunday) offer two unique experiences for trail runners. While the Classic is faster and more accessible, perfect for those who love rolling trails and speed, the Saint-Siméon route is designed for seasoned runners seeking a greater technical challenge. With steep climbs, singletrack terrain, and breathtaking but remote viewpoints, the Saint-Siméon course demands a higher level of skill and endurance. For the ultimate weekend, adventurous runners can take on both!

Dropping out and Getting Back

Should you choose to drop out of the race, or be required to end the race for medical reasons, it is important to signal your abandonment to the nearest aid station captain or to a first aider.

It is prohibited to quit the race and leave the course without signaling your abandonment to a member of the UTHC organisation. Every person abandoning the race must ensure that the race director has taken note of his bib number.

The bib numbers of the racers having abandoned will then be sent to the timing and results team. Once an athlete has signaled his desire to abandon the race, he will be taken in charge by the UTHC team to ensure he will be returned to the Mont Grand-Fonds event area.

Since many of the aid stations are difficult to reach, we ask that you be patient while transportation is arranged. This process can take some time and you may have to wait several minutes before being transported back to the Mont Grand-Fonds.
