GT 85 - An Ultra Trail on the most beautiful singles in Belgium! !

An innovative and unique Ultra Trail !

The Grand Trail des Lacs et Châteaux was been selected for the organisation of the Belgian Short and Long Trail Championships 2023.

The GT85, innovative with a UTMB Index of 100K.  This raceis a highly diversified Ultra cross that will allow you to discover a beautiful region at the gates of the Hautes Fagnes nature reserve, a true land of lakes and castles enhanced by forests and very aptly called the Blue Ardennes.

The resistance to effort perfectly describes this trail with a route full of difficulties with a vertical drop of 3083 D+. A magnificent course through nature reserve similar to those in French mountains will allow trail-runners to discover the splendid wild corners of the region of Robertville, Malmedy, Stavelot and Xhoffraix, the terrible Warche valley with its ridge road, the Reinhardstein Castle, and more…

Having very little pavement and a lot of undergrowth paths, this race is diverse, highly technical, tough and entertaining.

The race is opened to everyone.
