La Foulée Bessenoise - 20 km 2026

La Foulée Bessenoise is a trail race held in Bessenay, located in the Rhône department of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France. It takes place in early September, beginning at 09:00, and features two trail running distances: 10 km and 20 km. The 20 km race presents a greater challenge with 500 meters of elevation gain, whereas the 10 km route offers 200 meters of climbing, suited for runners seeking speed. The organizers' motto, “Run in the heart of the terroir!”, reflects a race focused on the local countryside rather than urban environments.
