Savennes night fever 2027

Savennes Night Fever is a headlamp race held in Savennes, a village near Guéret in the Creuse department, where participants begin after sunset. The primary race covers 10 km of trail, typically accompanied by a shorter 5 km option. The 10 km event is scheduled to start at 8:00 PM. This race is organized by the Comité des Loisirs de Savennes, giving it the feel of a local village event rather than a large urban competition. The course leads participants through rural woodlands, featuring sections within the Chabrières forest. The elevation gain ranges from approximately 200 to 320 meters, depending on the chosen route. Headlamps are required, highlighting that terrain, navigation, and ascents are more critical than speed on flat ground. Past events have attracted over 100 participants, with the 10 km distance presented as suitable for a wide range of runners, from experienced trail enthusiasts to local residents seeking a brief nighttime challenge.
