Every year, L’Échappée Belle gives runners the opportunity to support a charity or project by making a donation during registration.

For the 2026 edition, we invite you to support L’Échappée Belle’s “Beyond the Trail” project (Au-delà du Trail).

L’Échappée Belle, an ultra-trail crossing of the Belledonne mountain range, is deeply rooted in its local territory. Since its creation, the event has aimed not only to minimize its environmental impact, but also to raise awareness among trail runners about the challenges facing mountain environments, foster dialogue between local stakeholders, and take meaningful action for the region.

The “Beyond the Trail” project aims to:

  • Strengthen the race’s local roots and reinforce connections with the people and organizations involved in the Belledonne massif.
  • Create a positive impact on the Belledonne range by leveraging the race’s reputation and the strong relationships built with runners and volunteers.
  • Use sport as a tool to benefit and support the local territory.
