Rhino TRAIL

​
26 km / 1'600m m+
​

​« THE Ormonts ridges »

Despite its high peaks, Nepal, the country where the Humani'Trail projects take place, hosts the only population of one-horned rhinoceroses (along with India), an animal that is even the emblem of the national cricket team. For this route inaugurated in 2019, one will need to be a bit more flexible than this venerable mammal, especially to undertake the terrible and mythical ascent of the Palette, our 'WALL'

After starting in the center of the village, participants will follow the Dar, a river descending from the Glacier des Diablerets, known for its magnificent waterfall. After crossing the Col du Pillon, the Rhino route will lead to the refreshment point at Lac Retaud, dominated by the famous Palette.
The steps of this 'wall' will undoubtedly seem very high, but what a joy it will be to discover the fabulous panorama of the Bernese Oberland Alps and Lake Arnon.
After the Palette, runners will continue along the southern balconies of the Vallée des Ormonts and a triptych of Floriette, La Chaux, and finally the Col de Seron, where another charming view awaits the survivors. All that remains is to descend to the finish line at Les Diablerets.

CHALLENGE 2D
​
For only CHF 15.- extra, you can also take part in the 2-day challenge offered as part of our 10th anniversary.

The idea is as follows: you register for a race in Les Diablerets on Saturday (TAKIN, RHINO, or YAK) and then choose the 'CHALLENGE 2D,' which will allow you to participate the next day in Gstaad, either on the 14km course or the more demanding 27km course. The final choice can be made when picking up the bibs for the Sunday race.

A special ranking based on the total mileage covered and a coefficient will be established at the end of the 2 days.
