Sports enthusiasts and runners who love a good workout: La Foulée Verte is back, and it's the perfect opportunity to celebrate trail running near Saint-Étienne. An event where you'll breathe deeply, climb just the right amount, and where every stride reminds you why you love getting lost in the woods.
What you'll find there:
Two challenging courses: an 8 km (250 m elevation gain) to warm up, and a 16 km (500 m elevation gain) to really work those quads;
A start in L’Étrat, near the Château Park and the Coletière Stadium, setting the tone right from the first stride;
A complete immersion in the Clamart Forest, its tranquility, its earthy scents, and its trails that follow the contours of the land.
Course Focus: Here, nature takes center stage.
Whether you choose the short or long course, you'll be carving your way through the heart of the forest: wide paths or singletrack, curves, bumps, valleys, and a few rolling sections just long enough to catch your breath without falling asleep. The undergrowth offers its shade (thank you!), shelters you from the wind (thank you again!), and also sends you that typical forest trail humidity that awakens every step. A true nature run, balanced, vibrant, that brings you back to basics: moving forward, feeling, enjoying.
3 excellent reasons to participate:
Test yourself on two courses designed for fun;
Rediscover L’Étrat in its most beautiful light, nestled between local heritage and a forest setting;
Share a sporty morning with the extended Verts family, in a relaxed, authentic, and truly inspiring atmosphere.
So, ready to green up your running shoes? We'll be waiting for you at the starting line.
