The route goes from Sierre to Zinal in the Valais Alps, 31 km with about 2,200 m of climbing and 1,100 m of descent. The organiser calls it the Course des Cinq 4000 and describes it as the oldest of Europe's major mountain races. It is part of the Golden Trail World Series and the WMRA circuit. A separate route via Saint-Antoine exists for tourists, and the course page lets you send GPX tracks to your device.
