Trail du Lac de Villerest

About this event

The Trail du Lac de Villerest loops around a scenic reservoir in the Loire countryside, weaving through forests and rolling terrain with regular glimpses of the water below. The 30km route offers 916 metres of climbing — a solid challenge for those with some trail experience — while the 42km pushes further with 1168 metres of ascent, ideal for runners ready for a more substantial outing. The course mixes woodland single-track with open sections that reveal sweeping views across the lake, showcasing the varied landscapes of this artificial reservoir. Both distances demand a degree of trail fitness but reward with quiet, natural surroundings and the satisfaction of circling one of the region's most peaceful bodies of water.
