Trail des anglais - Le Port 97420 2027

Trail des Anglais is a 28 km trail race held in Le Port, within the Saint-Paul area of Reunion Island. Typically set for late February, it appeals to runners seeking a demanding island course over a road event. The primary distance involves a climb of approximately 1,270 metres, requiring strong legs, patience on ascents, and confidence on varied terrain. The last running attracted over 1,000 participants, marking it as a significant local trail event without becoming an overwhelming city-scale gathering. The course highlights Reunion's wild natural environment, with its tropical landscape and island vistas providing much of its appeal. It draws trail runners and outdoor enthusiasts, along with visitors who use the race as an opportunity to explore the island further. Saint-Denis is accessible for its market and Creole cuisine, Reunion National Park, a nearby UNESCO World Heritage site, offers hiking, the west-coast beaches near Saint-Gilles-les-Bains provide a relaxed recovery spot, and Piton de la Fournaise allows a visit to a highly active volcano.
