Trail de la Croix Labbé 2026

The Trail de la Croix Labbé is a late-November trail race in Meurthe-et-Moselle, starting from Hussigny-Godbrange in France’s Grand Est region. The town provides a specific local setting: it is a former iron-mining place, so runners head into a landscape shaped by its industrial past. The event offers two one-loop distances, 10.5 km and 25 km, with both also available as night-trail options. The shorter route climbs about 200 metres, while the 25 km route climbs about 700 metres and is the more popular distance. The race is designed for a mixed field. Beginners can choose the 10.5 km loop, while stronger trail runners can opt for a tougher day or night on the 25 km course. The event emphasizes a friendly atmosphere, personal challenge, and exploring Hussigny-Godbrange, with spectators contributing energy around the race. Its appeal is straightforward: two clear distances, significant climbing, a small-town start, and the option to run the trails after dark.
