Grand Prix du Cavigal

On October 11, 2026, the vibrant city of Nice will host its 26th annual road and trail running events, welcoming runners from across the region to participate in either the scenic 3km or challenging 10km courses. Limited to just the first 250 registrants, this event promises an intimate yet exhilarating experience for all participants.
The race kicks off at Place du Mont-Boron, a picturesque square surrounded by historic buildings and lush greenery that sets the tone for what's ahead. As runners take their mark, they'll be greeted with a mix of paved roads and winding trails that showcase Nice’s diverse landscape. The 3km course is ideal for beginners or those looking to enjoy a shorter yet memorable run through the city streets.
For those seeking a longer adventure, the 10km route offers an additional challenge as it ventures into some of the more secluded areas around Mont-Boron and beyond. This extended journey provides runners with stunning views of both urban charm and natural beauty, making for a truly unique running experience.
Both events are open to all ages from Benjamin to M10 (masters age group), welcoming licensed athletes alongside those who simply enjoy lacing up their shoes on occasion. Whether you're an avid runner or just looking for a fun way to explore Nice, this event is designed with everyone in mind.
Participants will also have the opportunity to earn points towards both the Nice Métropole Challenge and the Alpes-Maritimes Outdoor Race Series challenge, adding another layer of excitement and competition to your run.
Join us at Place du Mont-Boron for a day filled with running, camaraderie, and an unforgettable journey through one of France's most beautiful coastal cities.
The event promises not only physical exertion but also the chance to immerse yourself in the rich culture and stunning scenery that Nice has to offer.
