With its unique panorama over the Alps and its typical Jura ridge terrain, the destination of Sainte-Croix / Les Rasses will welcome for the third year running a horde of athletes, named “SPARTANS” on June 15, 2024.
During a SPARTAN race, participants face a series of obstacles (climbing, wall, nets, barbed wire, fire, sandbagging, etc.). Two of the franchise’s iconic distances will be featured on the Balcon du Jura: the “SPRINT” on a 5km course with 20 obstacles, and the “SUPER” on a 10km course with 25 obstacles. A special children’s trail will also be available during the event.
Organized in Switzerland by Gorilla Corporation Sà rl and XChange Sport and Event AG, this international sporting event is initiated and coordinated at regional level by the Association pour le Développement du Nord Vaudois (ADNV) and the Commune de Sainte-Croix.
