In these valleys the nearest hospital sits a long way from the passes, and a crash can wait for its ambulance. An open fracture, a broken collarbone or a concussion runs up a bill quickly. Medical expenses of up to €150,000 cover care, surgery and the hospital stay.
The run leg uses trails no vehicle can reach. A rolled ankle or heat exhaustion leaves an athlete stuck on a slope, sometimes without phone signal. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost handle the evacuation from where it happened and the trip back home.
Nobody turns up at Altriman unprepared: altitude camps, repeated passes, cold-water swims and shorter races fill the spring. The Competition option guarantees official competition on this event and across the rest of your season, so none of that build-up sits outside the cover.
Pass descents are taken fast and the verge is hard. A fall can leave a knee or a shoulder weaker for good, with a working life that needs rethinking. The permanent disability capital of up to €200,000 pays a sum that helps you hold on over time.
Altitude is what catches people out here. You leave a cold lake with your heart rate high, hit the first climb before recovering, and July's dry mountain air dehydrates faster than sea-level racing ever does. By mid-afternoon a storm can come up the valley in minutes and turn a dry trail into a slide.
A mountain triathlon is built over twelve months of long rides, hill repeats and open-water swims whenever the lake allows. Plenty of injuries happen in that period rather than on race day. Year-round triathlon insurance covers those training hours as well as official competition, in France and abroad.
Altriman offers several formats on one playground: a mountain lake, road passes and trails. The full distance suits athletes used to long days out, while the shorter formats let you taste high-altitude racing without committing to the whole thing.
You are putting on a mountain triathlon with several formats and a field spread over a wide course. We insure all your participants through a single sign-up. Our medical assistance line answers day and night while you race, and repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also be a partner of your event.
No. There is no altitude ceiling for a mountain triathlon of this kind. An accident above 1,500 metres falls under the same medical expenses and the same assistance as one down in the valley.
Yes. The cover applies in France and abroad, whatever your country of residence. A Spanish, Italian or British athlete on the full distance holds the same guarantees as a French starter.
Assistance arranges the evacuation from where the accident happened, including sections no vehicle can reach, and then the journey home. Medical expenses then cover the treatment and any hospital stay that follows.
No. This is individual personal accident cover, not cancellation insurance, so neither entry nor accommodation is reimbursed. It covers the bodily consequences of an accident before, during and after the race.
The price depends on how long you want the cover, which options you keep and how you train. The online quote shows an exact figure within a few minutes, with no commitment.
