Trail du Borinage

About this event

The Trail du Borinage takes runners through the historic mining region of Monceau, Belgium, where industrial heritage meets surprisingly green landscapes. Three distances cater to different experience levels, from an 11km route for those getting started in trail running to a challenging 37km course for seasoned runners. The terrain winds through former coal mining areas that have been reclaimed by nature, creating a unique backdrop of woods, meadows, and remnants of the region's industrial past. It's a fascinating blend of history and natural beauty, offering technical sections that reward good footwork and concentration. The September timing often brings crisp autumn weather, perfect for covering these varied distances through Belgium's lesser-known trail running territory.
