The Dahu Trail is an unsupported alpine ultra-cycling adventure through the high altitudes of the Western Alps. Starting on September 12, 2027, the point-to-point route departs from Aosta in northwestern Italy and concludes in Saluzzo. Over the course of the journey, riders cross international borders between Italy, France, and Switzerland eight times.

The course covers roughly 800 kilometers with approximately 28,000 meters of cumulative elevation gain. According to organizers, the terrain is about 70 percent unpaved, traversing a mix of gravel roads and mountain bike tracks alongside paved transit sections.

As a self-supported event, participants navigate by GPS and manage their own resupply, lodging, and mechanical needs along the high-mountain route. Application and route details are available on the official event website.
