La Course du Noitel is a small nature race held in Oëy, within Chanteraine in the Meuse department of Grand Est. It gathers runners and walkers at the village hall for a morning of trail running, Nordic walking, hiking, and children’s races. Distances vary from 800 metres for the youngest participants to a 22 km trail for experienced runners.
The primary adult choices include a swift 5 km race, a 10.6 km trail featuring approximately 350 metres of elevation gain, and the extended 22 km route, introduced after the event had established several editions. Walkers can choose a 10.6 km course, suitable for a relaxed hike or Nordic walk. Children have 800 m and 1.5 km races with modest entry fees. Refreshments and activities are provided on-site, and registration is managed via ProTiming.
