Chouffe 10 Miles is a trail running event held in Houffalize, located in Belgium’s Walloon province of Luxembourg, with its race weekend scheduled for early July. Beyond its namesake distance, the event offers a range of options: a 10 km trail, longer distances of 50 km and 69 km, and intermediate choices of 17 km, 18 km, 24 km, 28 km, and 36 km. Several races contribute to UTMB Index categories, attracting participants focused on mountain and trail rankings, alongside local runners seeking a demanding challenge.
The courses are single-loop trails winding through the forests and natural paths surrounding Houffalize. The 18 km Nocturne introduces a night-race element, differentiating it from typical daytime trail events. The event highlights its varied terrain and multiple distances suitable for different skill levels, from the 10 km introductory race to the 69 km ultra. Its lighthearted local slogan, “Chouf chouf! C’est le Chouffe 10 Miles,” complements the Ardennes environment and the race’s association with the Chouffe brand.
