Course de l’Escalade – More Than Just a Race

If you live in Geneva, you’ve likely heard of the Course de l’Escalade — one of the city’s most cherished traditions.
But this event is far more than a race. It’s a joyful celebration of community, inclusivity, and local spirit, bringing together thousands of runners, families, and volunteers each year.

Organized by the Association Course de l’Escalade, the event embodies the values of teamwork, energy, and togetherness that define Geneva’s cultural identity.
