Les Défis de la Boucle - Etape 2 2026

Les Défis de la Boucle - Stage 2 is a 10 km night trail race held in the Doubs region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. Participants begin at 19:30, navigating a route that, while short, includes approximately 200 meters of elevation gain. The event is associated with Dannemarie-sur-Crête, though confirmed registration information indicates the start is in Avanne-Aveney. Therefore, this race should be considered a local Doubs event rather than a major urban race. The course follows trails rather than paved roads. The primary distinction is the nighttime setting, requiring participants to use headlamps for visibility on the paths. This event is the second stage in the Les Défis de la Boucle series. The listed entry fee is 28 EUR. The format is suitable for runners seeking a concise trail challenge under dark conditions, as opposed to an extended mountain race.
