LA GRAVEL CÔTES D'ARMOR 2026

Join the exhilarating La Gravel Côtes d'Armor 2026, set for September 26 and 27, 2026. This unique race features two challenging distances: a nighttime adventure of 140 kilometers on Saturday followed by a scenic gravel run of 120 kilometers the next morning.
On Saturday evening, runners will embark on a moonlit journey through the countryside around Plédran, starting at 7 PM after an initial welcome from 6 PM. The route winds along wide paths and small rural roads, offering picturesque views as the sun sets over the landscape. Participants can expect to encounter varied terrain, including stretches of gravel trails that weave through charming villages.
The following morning, runners return for a daylight event starting at 7:45 AM after an early welcome from 6:45 AM. This 120-kilometer course continues where the night run left off but now bathed in sunlight along the coast. The route includes singletrack sections and rolling gravel paths with some challenging climbs near the seaside, providing breathtaking views of the Costarmoricain coastline.
Both events share a common starting point and finish line at Plédran, just 10 minutes by car from Saint-Brieuc’s railway station. Limited to only 100 participants each day, this event offers an intimate experience for runners looking to test their endurance against diverse terrains under both night sky and morning sun.
For those staying overnight in Plédran, a warm meal is provided along with the option to rest comfortably at the multisport hall before heading back out on Sunday. All finishers will be rewarded not only with a sense of accomplishment but also with local beers from the region, hearty galette-saucisse meals, and plenty of refreshments.
Experience the unique blend of night and day running in one weekend along the picturesque landscapes of Côtes d'Armor.
Join us for an unforgettable adventure that combines challenging terrain, stunning scenery, and a vibrant community spirit.
