Mistral Marathon Trail - MMT
It begins on the first kilometres of the Ventoux road out of Malaucène, then passes the Groseau and the village of Sainte-Marguerite and climbs to the Crête de la Plate, with the Baronnies, the Dentelles de Montmirail, the Toulourenc valley and the Ventoux itself in view. It reaches the Mont Serein ski station and joins the GR4 for the climb to the summit.
Down from the top, the course crosses the rock fields and passes the Piaud chapel, then goes over the Col de la Chaîne, with its view of the Dentelles, to the finish in Malaucène. The organiser lists 2 Running Stones and direct entry to the finals category. Aid stations, cutoffs and start waves are not on the race page.
It is the Sunday race, the last of the weekend. A Livebib link shared by the runner shows the position on the course line, distance covered and a finish estimate that updates as the race goes, which matters on a mountain the organiser itself calls unpredictable. If the phone loses signal on the mountain, the position is carried forward along the course and marked as estimated. No account, no app, and the runner decides who has the link.
