Trail des Chioures

About the Event

On September 6, 2026, 'Les Brancassiers' Association invites runners to take part in three exhilarating races at various distances. The event features four categories of competition: a challenging 23 km race for athletes starting from the espoir category and beyond; an intermediate 13 km course open to juniors and adults running either solo or as duos; and an introductory 8 km route designed for cadets.
The races wind through scenic trails and dirt paths, offering runners breathtaking views of the Bec Charvet and Dent de Crolles. The shorter courses are looped circuits without time limits, allowing participants to enjoy multiple laps if they wish. However, the longer 23 km race includes a strict cut-off at the 15-kilometer mark (at 10:30 AM), ensuring that all runners complete the full distance within a reasonable timeframe.
All courses are clearly marked with reusable ribbons attached to trees and flags, minimizing environmental impact. This thoughtful approach ensures both an enjoyable experience for participants and respect for nature in this stunning Alpine setting. Whether you're seeking a challenging mountain trek or a scenic introduction to trail running, 'Les Brancassiers' event promises something unique for every level of runner.
The day offers runners the opportunity to immerse themselves in the beauty of the French Alps while testing their limits on varied terrain and gradients. With options catering to all ages and abilities, this race is a must-attend for anyone looking to challenge themselves amidst some of Europe's most spectacular landscapes.
