About this race
Le Trail du Grès begins and ends at the Arènes de Saint-Étienne-du-Grès, a village near the Alpilles in southern France. Organized by Le Grès Trail Club, this late-April event is handled by KMS for timing, registration, and technical support. Participants can select Les Crêtes, a 14 km trail covering 500 m of elevation, or Les Taureaux, a 6.5 km trail with 110 m of climbing. A 6 km walk, La Grésouillaise, also offers 110 m of elevation gain.
The courses follow paths and trails within the Alpilles massif, interspersed with some road segments, positioning the event as a countryside trail run rather than a road race. The shorter trail and the walk are suitable for those in good physical condition, while the 14 km route presents a more challenging ridge ascent. Trail runners must possess the required French Health Prevention Course, and minors require parental consent. Registration is exclusively online via KMS, with bib collection on the event morning at the venue, requiring identification.
