Castle Trail

About this event

Castle Trail winds through the forested hills around Bouillon, where medieval ramparts crown the ridges above the Semois River. This winter edition offers three challenging routes (20km, 35km, and 50km) that climb through the Belgian Ardennes' characteristic terrain of rolling woodland and rocky outcrops. The courses feature significant elevation gain across relatively short distances, making them technical and demanding. Runners navigate quiet forest paths and open ridgelines, with the historic fortress town serving as both backdrop and base. February conditions add an extra element to the experience, with muddy trails and potentially icy sections testing footwork and endurance. The varied distance options allow runners to choose their challenge level while exploring this lesser-known corner of the Ardennes.
