The history of the competition lies in the European Mountain Running Trophy, which was first held in 1994 in Quantin, Belluno, Italy. It was officially sanctioned by the World Mountain Running Association in 1995 and continued until 2001, at which point the EAA introduced the official European Mountain Running Championships.[1][2]

Exclusively a senior championships until 2009, the competition now features separate senior and junior (under 20s) races for both men and women. Medals are awarded on an individual and national team basis.[3] For the team competition, the finishing positions of each country's top three runners are combined, and the team with the smallest cumulative total wins the medals.[4]

The 2021 edition was cancelled.[5] A new competition was started in 2022, the European Athletics Off-Road Running Championships, which was described as the "forerunner" to the European Mountain Running Championships.[6] The Off-Road Running Championships was held in 2022 and 2024 and as of 2024, it is next scheduled to be held in 2026.[6]
