La Foulée du Lac

Experience the magic of La Foulée du Lac, now entering its fourth edition. This day promises four distinct courses for runners and nature enthusiasts alike—each designed to explore the picturesque landscapes surrounding Lake Séchemailles, straddling Meymac and Ambrugeat in the Corrèze department.
For those who prefer a leisurely pace, the 12-kilometer walk offers breathtaking views of forests and river valleys. The route follows the "Feuilles en Aiguille" variant (shorter loop), allowing you to enjoy several scenic segments before joining trail runners for a portion of their course. This is perfect if you're looking to take in the surroundings at your own pace.
Children can also join in with their very own 1,5-kilometer race starting at 11:45 AM or the more adventurous 3-kilometer loop around the lake's forested shore for those aged 12-13. Register on-site to participate in these fun-filled events tailored just for kids.
For a shorter but still invigorating challenge, the "P'tite Maille" race takes you through one complete circuit of Lake Séchemailles—about 5 kilometers long with around 40 meters of elevation gain. Despite the slight inclines, most of your journey will be shaded, offering ample opportunities to appreciate the stunning views.
Daring participants can tackle the "Grand Maille," a more demanding 10-kilometer course that doubles up on Lake Séchemailles. With two loops around the lake and nearly 700 meters of elevation gain, this race is perfect for those who wish to fully immerse themselves in the region's natural beauty.
The ultimate test awaits with "Trail des Aiguilles," a 21.5-kilometer route that includes a challenging ascent through the Natura 2000 protected forest of La Cubesse. Participants must exercise caution here, respecting the environment and preserving this unique ecosystem. With nearly 700 meters of elevation gain, this course will put your endurance to the test.
Don't miss out on these exciting races that promise a blend of scenic trails and competitive challenges. Records are waiting to be broken in all categories. Register now for an unforgettable day at La Foulée du Lac!
