Trail de Rodrigues

About the event

Escape to a tropical Indian Ocean paradise for the 17th edition of the Trail de Rodrigues, an iconic island running festival set for **Thursday, 8 Novembar 2026**, on the stunning, mountainous island of Rodrigues. Organized by the passionate Rod Trail Association, this event offers five distinct trails of varying technical difficulty, showcasing the island's dramatic relief—from grassy slopes and earthy paths to rugged coastal cliffs and pristine beaches. It's a unique celebration of sport, nature, and community, born from a love for the island and designed to connect runners with its breathtaking landscapes and warm local culture.

Held on January 8th, this mid-week trail is the ultimate "runcation" destination, inviting athletes of all levels to test themselves against a backdrop of somptuous, unspoiled scenery. More than a race, it's an immersive experience where the spirit of Rodrigues—its people, its terrain, and its serene beauty—becomes an integral part of every unforgettable stride.
