About this race
La Transversale des Fous is a small December trail event in Sort-en-Chalosse, Landes department, southwest France. It provides two running distances, 7 km and 14 km, and a 7 km walk. The walk begins at 17:45, and both trail races start at 18:00, with all participants setting off in the late afternoon or early evening. Entry fees are straightforward and modest: 5 EUR for the walk, 8 EUR for the 7 km trail, and 14 EUR for the 14 km trail.
The event listings lack specific route landmarks, elevation, or surface details, suggesting a local trail gathering rather than a major destination race. Walkers have a distinct 7 km option, runners can select the same short distance or opt for double that length, and the shared 18:00 race start integrates the two trail fields into a single evening event.
