About Monterosa Outdoor Festival

The Monterosa Outdoor Festival transforms Brusson and Ayas into a large open-air stage dedicated to those who love sport, nature, and the energy of the mountains. For an entire weekend in June, the Val d'Ayas vibrates to the rhythm of mountain biking, trail running, yoga, climbing, and hiking, with the historic MTB ultramarathon Monterosa Prestige as its beating heart. Bike test drives, exhibitor stands, music, and discussion sessions with athletes and enthusiasts complete a program for all levels.

Outdoor sport takes center stage in Val d'Ayas

The Monterosa Outdoor Festival is the great mountain sport celebration that, every June, enlivens the municipalities of Brusson and Ayas, in Val d'Ayas (Province of Aosta), at the foot of the Monte Rosa massif. Born from the experience of the historic Monterosa Prestige race, the festival broadens its horizons by transforming the entire valley into an open-air stage.

Many disciplines, one energy

The program intertwines the most diverse aspects of the mountains: from mountain biking to trail running, from yoga to climbing, up to hiking and slow walks. An offering designed for all levels, from the athlete seeking adrenaline to the visitor who wishes to discover nature at a gentler pace.

Monterosa Prestige, the heart of the event

The sporting soul of the weekend is the Monterosa Prestige, the historic MTB ultramarathon organized over two routes — the Marathon and Granfondo courses — which challenges bikers amidst the spectacular landscapes of Val d'Ayas.

Not just racing: village, flavors, and music

In the center of Brusson, the festival village comes to life with exhibitor stands, test drives of bicycles and outdoor equipment. There are also convivial moments: evenings with testimonials and athletes, entertainment, music, and food and wine stops at local dairies, breweries, and vineyards, combining sport with the discovery of the territory.
