Entre Loire et Coteaux - 10 km 2026

Entre Loire et Coteaux is a trail race series in Ancenis, Loire-Atlantique, offering a 10 km option alongside longer trail distances. The 10 km is the most accessible race, while the full event includes roughly 20 or 21 km and 34 km races, plus a 15 km Nordic walk. The 10 km starts in the morning, though published listings vary on the exact start time and elevation. The name reflects the local geography: Ancenis is situated by the Loire River, with the surrounding coteaux (slopes) providing the race's climbs. The longer routes have approximately 400 to 500 meters of ascent, while the 10 km is a moderate trail run, not a flat road race. ACPA Ancenis organizes the event, catering to local trail runners, walkers, and those seeking a manageable off-road race without the commitment of longer distances.
