Marathon du Pays des Châteaux

About this event

The Marathon du Pays des Châteaux takes runners through the Loire Valley's château country, starting from the historic town of Cheverny. The course winds past renaissance castles, through vineyards, and along tree-lined country roads that feel like stepping into French history. The full marathon offers a challenging but scenic tour of the region, while the relay format lets teams share the experience. A half marathon option provides a gentler introduction to this beautiful corner of France. The spring timing means mild weather and countryside coming alive with fresh greenery, making it a lovely blend of athletic challenge and cultural discovery.
