Ekitrail de Chaponnay

About this event

Set in the charming commune of Chaponnay, just southeast of Lyon, this trail event offers runners a taste of the Rhône countryside. The rolling terrain around this historic village provides a pleasant change from urban routes, with paths winding through agricultural landscapes and quiet woodlands. While the event suits runners with some trail experience, the relatively gentle elevation changes make it accessible to those looking to build their off-road confidence. The April timing catches the region at its spring best, when the countryside comes alive with fresh greenery. A great option for Lyon-area runners seeking a proper trail workout without venturing deep into the Alps.
