Descriptif

The Montée Du Funi is a 6-hour non-stop free-style race, most of which takes place on mountain trails. It is run semi-autonomously. Only the climbs are timed. At the summit, the stopwatch stops
at the finish line marked by the timing mat. Waiting and descent times are not counted. The funicular runs continuously and the journey itself takes 7 to 11 minutes, depending on the stops. Competitors in the race
competitors must reach the finish line within the 6:00:00 time limit to have their last ascent timed. The winner will be the competitor who completes the greatest number of climbs in the least amount of time.
