Courses des Foulées Pélissannaises - Pelissanne 2026

Les Foulées Pélissannaises begins in Pélissanne, a village in Bouches-du-Rhône, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. This established local race series takes place in early October, featuring road running, trail running, walking, and children's events. The schedule includes short races for young children (450 m and 700 m), a 3 km race, a 5 km youth course, an 8 km walk, a 10 km race, a 16 km race with 400 m of elevation gain, and a 29 km Trail XS with 1000 m of elevation gain. The courses traverse the countryside surrounding Pélissanne and the Costes massif, resulting in steeper terrain for the longer distances compared to the shorter village routes. The 8 km walk, named La Marche de la vigne à l'olivier, highlights the local vineyards and olive trees. The 10 km race offers a faster pace with 115 m of elevation gain, while the Trail du Calabrun and the 29 km race provide a more challenging experience for experienced trail runners. Children are included with La Ronde des Pitchouns for ages 5 to 14, alongside several very short races.
