"In the heart of the Southern Alps, 3000 hectares of turquoise water as far as the eye can see..."

Some even say that it is a piece of the Mediterranean that seems to have been laid at the foot of the Alps. With the Embrun swimrun, it's a real piece of paradise that you'll discover at the Lac de Serre-Ponçon Located at an altitude of 780m, it reflects in its waters the innumerable peaks perched more than 2000m above sea level in the Écrins National Park. Faced with this vast expanse of turquoise blue water, which makes it the second largest artificial lake in Europe, time seems suspended. Here, everything is here to a life-size swimrun.
In 2021, a new and unique format will be created in Embrun Serre-Ponçon: the NIGHT SWIMRUNMAN (41km). An emblematic night-time swimrun course that gives you the opportunity to take up an extraordinary challenge from dusk to dawn. Get ready to light up the darkness..
In addition to this night swimrun, the CLASSIC (23km) and SPRINT (11km) courses will allow everyone to live the SWIMRUNMAN adventure of their choice.
