About this race
The Trail Cloysien des 3 Rivieres begins at the Château de Montigny-le-Gannelon in Cloyes-sur-le-Loir, located in France’s Centre-Val de Loire region's Eure-et-Loir department. This yearly March trail race offers three primary distances: 10 km, 16 km, and 21 km. The event is designed for participants preferring trails over road races, featuring hills, forest paths, and chateaux along the course. The 10 km race is run in full autonomy, requiring runners to manage their own provisions without aid stations.
The race attracts a robust local field, with registrations often filling rapidly and nearly a thousand participants in a recent running. The 10 km event alone can host several hundred starters, featuring a balanced representation of men and women, with average finish times slightly exceeding one hour. A dedicated course is provided for juniors, ensuring the event caters to younger participants as well as adults pursuing longer distances. A substantial volunteer photography team contributes to the event's character, documenting runners from various perspectives and in diverse weather conditions, subsequently publishing galleries from multiple named photographers.
