The Patrouille des Glaciers is the world's largest ski mountaineering race and the major event in this rapidly growing discipline. It connects Zermatt to Verbier over a distance of 57.5 km.
The PdG is not a race for casual athletes. The route from Zermatt to Verbier requires specific and meticulous preparation, both mentally and physically. The quality of the organization is also a real calling card for the Swiss Army.

This unique race is characterized by the length and altitude of the course profile as well as the demands of the alpine environment. The PdG can boast of being the race of all superlatives with 4,386 m of elevation gain over 57.5 km of high mountain terrain on the Z course, culminating at Tête Blanche at an altitude of 3,650 m.

The PdG and its partner Swisscom are pleased to announce the launch of a new web app for the 2026 edition, which raises the bar! Simply download it to your smartphone to be at the heart of the action. Whether you are participating yourself or following the performances of your loved ones, it provides all the information live, on all devices, without downloading, with access at any time with a simple click on live.pdg.ch.

Guided tour of the exhibition “présences” with Mélanie Hugon-Duc, director of the Musée de Bagnes, accompanied by artist Jean Faravel.
As an artist, sound designer, and filmmaker, Jean Faravel guides visitors from the moment they enter the museum with sounds that suggest the presence of the wolf. In the children’s room, the dynamic is reversed. The invisible wolf is now observed and mapped. Here, the artist presents an audio-visual installation that answers the question: “Wolf, are you there?” The cabin becomes an observatory for these places where the wolf passes through and leaves its mark through place names. Names we grow attached to, that enter common usage, and behind which we still sense this presence. The exhibition “Presences” addresses the subject of the wolf by exploring the centuries-old and contemporary relationships between wolves and humans in the context of Valais, and more broadly in the Alps. Echoing the perception of the residents, farmers, and shepherds of the Alps for whom the presence of the predator—now protected—is “too close,” the museum becomes a home. The wolves have entered it. The blurring of the lines between the domestic and the wild emerges within the familiar spaces of daily life: a living room showcasing the coexistence of humans and wolves over time, a garden where dogs and wolves play with the meaning of evolution, and rooms dedicated to attachment, predation, and transformation. A journey where wolves from bestiaries—taxidermied, captured in thermal imagery, or as plush toys—
