Course des crêtes du pays Basque

Ongi etorri*! Clichés die hard. Here you come for the trails and stay for the party (or vice versa, it works too). Ready to take on the Espelette challenge?

What you'll find there:

• A 7 km night trail (650 D+), a 15 km (500 D+), a 21 km (700 D+), and a tough 30 km with 1500 D+. Not forgetting the 17 km Miam-Miam hike that might interest you;
• A 100% Basque atmosphere: spicy trails (yes, we did it), a jai in the village, axoa, paquito, patxaran and so on;
• Showers, free shuttles, and well-placed refreshments to keep you going.

Focus on trails:

The trails of the Basque Country are a visual slap in the face with every stride. The trails take you between green hills, steep ridges and open landscapes all the way to the ocean. On the 30 km, prepare yourself for technical singletrack and to come across some local sheep in spectator mode. The Spanish border is never far away, and you will enjoy breathtaking views, no matter the distance chosen. The setting? Wild, authentic, lively. An unforgettable adventure.

3 excellent reasons to participate:

• Sports OK, party first: that's the race's slogan, no need to comment;
• Discovering the ridges of the Basque Country means combining physical challenge and magnificent landscapes in one of the most beautiful playgrounds in France;
• Joining a great initiative by supporting a local, sustainable and friendly organization, while choosing what suits you (bib, t-shirt, meal). An event that reflects you!
