Trail de la Flora

Get ready to trade the summer sun for the raw, winter-born grit of Brittany at the 11th Trail de la Flora, returning to Saint-Alban on Sunday, March 29, 2026. Since its debut in 2014, this event has evolved from a local school fundraiser into a prestigious highlight of the Breton trail calendar, designed in collaboration with elite local athletes. The 2026 edition promises a return to the "real" trail experience—expect mud, unpredictable weather, and the legendary terrain of the Flora Valley that runners have come to love and respect.

The race features three freshly updated distances, meticulously designed to showcase the diverse landscape between coastal paths and lush valleys. The 24 km Circuit (550m D+) offers a technical endurance test for seasoned trailers, while the 12 km Circuit (260m D+) provides a balanced challenge of speed and elevation. For those looking for a fast-paced introduction to the Flora trails, the 8 km Circuit (150m D+) delivers a dynamic route through Saint-Alban's stunning surroundings. No matter the distance, every runner will navigate the unique intersection of steep valley slopes and rugged seaside tracks that make this event an "exceptional situation" in the world of trail running.

Beyond the finish line, the Trail de la Flora is a community celebration rooted in the heart of the village. Starting from Rue de l’Église, the event hub offers a warm atmosphere with post-race meals and a festive gathering point for participants and their families. As the 11th edition approaches, the organizing team invites you to embrace the elements and push your limits in one of the most scenic coastal regions of France. Secure your registration today to join a growing legacy of trail runners who thrive when the path gets tough and the views get wild.
