Trail du Val d’Huisne is a semi-urban trail race held in La Ferté-Bernard, a town known as “La Venise de l’Ouest.” VSF Athlétisme organizes the event, offering two main races: a 16 km race beginning in the morning and a 9.7 km race following shortly after. Both races commence from Mail de la Liberté, and there are also races for younger participants.
The course combines town running with trail segments, transitioning from city streets and narrow passages to paths and single tracks in the Huisne valley. Runners will pass near La Ferté-Bernard’s monuments and historical locations, adding local character compared to a standard out-and-back trail course. This event marks its 10th edition, establishing it as a fixture on the local running schedule without the feel of a large commercial event.
