Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of nature during our Randonnée Pédestre and Course Nature semi-nocturne events, featuring scenic routes for both leisurely hikes and competitive runs. On Saturday, September 12th, explore two distinct experiences: a day hike option with distances ranging from 7 km to 15 km, offering the perfect opportunity for those looking to enjoy nature at their own pace or to fine-tune their fitness levels. The hiking event will welcome participants between 13:00 and 16:00. Hikers should be prepared to return by 19:00, allowing ample time to soak in the stunning landscapes under a clear blue sky before dusk falls. The trail offers gentle terrain with rolling hills that cater to all levels of experience. For those seeking an adrenaline rush, our Course Nature semi-nocturne awaits after sunset. This competitive event kicks off at 19:00 and continues into twilight, featuring three distinct courses designed for various age groups and skill sets: - A 4 km trail with a modest elevation gain of 105 meters suitable for minimes. - A more challenging 9 km route that ascends to 200 meters in elevation, recommended for cadets. - The ultimate challenge is reserved for juniors and beyond: an exhilarating 16 km course boasting a total climb of 400 meters. The event setup begins at 16:00 for the evening run participants. With the setting sun casting long shadows across the landscape, runners will navigate through varied terrain that includes winding paths and rugged trails under the glow of ambient lighting. Canicross enthusiasts are also invited to join in on this adventure, with separate categories tailored specifically for human-canine teams. This unique event promises an unforgettable blend of natural beauty, camaraderie among participants, and a touch of competition as runners and their furry companions race through the night. Whether you're looking to enjoy a leisurely walk or push your limits during a competitive run, our Randonnée Pédestre and Course Nature semi-nocturne events offer an experience that caters to all levels. Join us for a memorable journey through nature's wonders under both daylight and starlit skies.
