Trail de la Forge 9ème Edition

Join us for the 9th edition of Trail de la Forge (TDLF2027) on March 21, 2027, around Martigné Ferchaud's picturesque Etang de la Forge. This year’s event features a challenging 27K trail that winds through the village of La Forge and along the Pigeon Quarry before reaching Eancé via tranquil fields and woodlands. Participants can also choose from an 18K intermediate route around the quarry, or a scenic 11K tour circling Etang de Martigné.
The longer trails offer substantial elevation gain with varied landscapes, while the shorter routes provide a more relaxed experience through charming countryside settings. All courses are timed and include refreshment stations along the way and at the finish line. A unique addition this year is an event for young runners: Ecole Athlétisme (600 meters), Poussins (1.2 kilometers), and Benjamins et Minimes (2 kilometers).
Race day registration starts on March 21 from 7:45 AM to 9:30 AM, with bib pickup available the previous evening at Etang de Martigné between 2:30 PM and 5 PM. Remember to bring a reusable cup for hydration stations as no disposable cups will be provided.
Enjoy post-race refreshments and showers on site while celebrating your achievement in this scenic French setting. For more information, visit coursedelaforge.run/# or follow us on Facebook.
