Trail des Cornes dUrfé

About this event

Set in the rolling hills of the Loire region, the Trail des Cornes d'Urfé offers four well-designed courses through the picturesque countryside around Champoly. The event caters beautifully to all levels, from a gentle 8-kilometre introduction with 360 metres of climbing — perfect for newcomers to trail running — through to a challenging 37-kilometre route with nearly 1,450 metres of elevation gain. The intermediate options at 15 kilometres and 25 kilometres provide natural stepping stones for those looking to progress. Taking place in late October, runners experience autumn colours painting the landscape and cooler temperatures ideal for sustained effort. The varied terrain showcases this lesser-known corner of France, where forests, farmland and open ridges create an engaging mix that keeps each distance interesting without being overly technical.
