Trail du Granit 2027

Trail du Granit takes place in Bécon-les-Granits, a small commune in Maine-et-Loire, western France. Participants select short to middle-distance courses, typically near 7.5, 15, and 30 to 32 kilometers, with the longest route featuring approximately 300 meters of elevation gain. This is a local nature race, not a mountain ultra, focusing on footpaths, tracks, and the town's granite heritage. The courses follow the paths and trails surrounding Bécon-les-Granits. The short race offers a quick introduction to the local "mineral" theme, while the 15 km route is described by organizers as more rugged and undulating. The event draws a crowd and supports a good cause, also hosting children’s and junior races, making the day accessible beyond seasoned trail runners. Its lighthearted slogan, “Tombe pas dans les pommes !” translates to “Don’t faint!” and reflects the race’s relaxed, community atmosphere.
