About this race
The Trail semi-urbain des 221 marches takes place in Crest, Drôme, in southeastern France, typically in early April. The name, "221 marches" (221 steps), highlights its semi-urban character, distinguishing it from purely mountain trail races. The current offering includes 5 km and 10 km races, with the 10 km being the most frequented.
Past event details reveal additional race options: an 11 km trail featuring approximately 500 metres of elevation gain, a 17 km solo trail, and a 1500 m race for children. The event attracts a modest number of participants, with one past edition seeing just over 100 runners. Club runners, such as those from SCAP Montélimar, have also competed. Essentially, it is a small, local trail event featuring short distances, moderate climbs, and a course situated within the town, not a major destination race.
