Embark on a scenic point-to-point journey through the historic Burgundy countryside at the 2026 Trail des 3 Châteaux on Saturday, March 7. This unique event offers three distinct distances—a demanding 61km "Grande Traversée," a challenging 28km "Traversée," and an accessible 15km "Petite Traversée"—each starting from a different picturesque village (Autun, Broye, and Marmagne) and converging for a festive finish in Le Creusot. The courses weave through rolling landscapes with significant elevation, showcasing the region's beauty and culminating with a memorable arrival at the majestic Château de la Verrerie. Organized by the passionate volunteers of Entente Athlétique Le Creusot, the race is renowned for its exceptional conviviality, creating a weekend-long celebration of trail running and local community spirit.
More than just a physical challenge, the Trail des 3 Châteaux is a deeply rooted local tradition that expertly balances athletic rigor with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staggered afternoon start times for the shorter distances add to the festival vibe, allowing for a day full of racing and camaraderie. With affordable entry fees and a commitment to inclusivity, the event welcomes runners of all levels to experience the unique joy of a point-to-point adventure in the heart of France. Lace up for a day of personal surpassing, shared effort, and authentic Burgundian hospitality on the trails.
