Recurring 10K races near Avignon
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Beaver Trail
The Beaver Trail is a series of technical trail races held in Poulx, a small commune near Nîmes in the Gard department of Occitanie, taking place under the October sun. It features five trail races and a walking option: 9 km, 18 km, 28 km, 50 km, 80 km, and a 10 km Nordic walk. The Ti' Beaver covers 200 m of elevation gain, the 18 km Beaver Découverte has 650 m of climbing, the 28 km Beaver Confirmé climbs 1,200 m, the 50 km Beaver Intense gains 1,850 m, and the 80 km Trail Peï lists 1,000 m of ascent.
The courses traverse the rugged natural terrain surrounding the Gardon gorges, with the river accompanying participants through an area covering three Natura 2000 sites. The 28 km and 50 km races are eligible for ITRA points and serve as UTMB World Series Qualifiers. They are also part of the Challenge Gardois des Trails, with Beaver Trail being the second-to-last event before Hivernatrail in December. The 10 km Nordic walk includes a charitable component, with its entire registration fee donated to the League Against Cancer.
Rochegude en Rose
Rochegude en Rose is a 10 km road race in the Drôme region of France, with a 10 km walk offered for people who prefer a steadier pace. The event is built around charity, and all donations go to a charitable cause.
The format keeps the day open to both competitive runners and committed walkers. Its name points to Rochegude, and the “en Rose” theme gives the event a clear identity beyond the distance itself.
10 km de la Cité des Papes
The 10 km de la Cité des Papes is a road race held in Avignon, located in the Vaucluse department of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, France. Taking place in early October, it offers participants two primary distances: the well-attended 10 km course or a 4.5 km alternative. The event also features races specifically for children and juniors, with the children’s race accessible to those aged 9 and up.
The race begins in Avignon’s city center, guiding participants through the city’s core before leading them to the banks of the Rhône river. The Club d’Athlétisme Avignon is the organizer, supported by local partners such as the city of Avignon and the Vaucluse departmental council. This event is also connected to the Nocturne des Papes, and past results and photos are available, with archives extending back to 1930.
La foulée ressource - Aix-en-Provence
La Foulée Ressource takes place in October in Aix-en-Provence, offering three options: a 5 km run, a 10 km run, or a 5 km walk/hike. All three events begin at 15:00 with identical entry fees. The 10 km race is certified by the FFA, providing an officially measured course for those seeking a timed road distance beyond a charity event.
Aix Athlé Provence organizes La Foulée Ressource. The event's purpose is straightforward: to fund the Centre Ressource in Aix-en-Provence, a support center for cancer patients focusing on wellbeing and therapeutic care. The center relies on La Foulée Ressource for approximately 90% of its operational funding. This means participants are directly contributing to the center's survival, not just making an additional donation. The event has completed twelve editions, accommodating club runners, casual participants, walkers, and supporters within its afternoon schedule.
Les Peluches en Duo
Les Peluches en Duo is a pairs trail race in Espeluche, a village in the Drôme department of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France. It takes place in early October and features two forest routes: a 9.6 km Duo des Peluches and an 18.2 km Duo Trail. The event is run at departmental level, making it more of a local race day for runners seeking hills, woods, and a partner, rather than a large-scale urban event.
The longer Duo Trail begins first, a team time trial covering 18.2 km with approximately 500 m of elevation gain. The shorter Duo des Peluches follows over 9.6 km with about 250 m of climbing, and it is designated as a non-official race. Endurance26 organizes the event, with results published for both formats. The race motto, “Together we go further,” directly reflects the duo format.
La Foulée Ressource
La Foulée Ressource is a charity road race held in Aix-en-Provence, located in the Bouches-du-Rhône department of southern France. It takes place in early October, originating from the Les Milles business park. Participants can choose between 5 km and 10 km races, or a 12 km walk for those who prefer not to compete. The event's motto is “Courir, ça a du sens” — running with a purpose.
The route commences near the McDonald’s within the business park and concludes at the Centre Ressource. This race benefits the Ressource association, which provides wellbeing and therapeutic support to individuals affected by cancer. The connection is significant, as the Centre indicates that the majority of its operations rely on this event. Consequently, the race is structured around solidarity as much as athletic performance. Runners, walkers, supporters, and local attendees unite for a morning focused on a shared cause.
Courses des Foulées Pélissannaises - Pelissanne
Les Foulées Pélissannaises begins in Pélissanne, a village in Bouches-du-Rhône, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. This established local race series takes place in early October, featuring road running, trail running, walking, and children's events. The schedule includes short races for young children (450 m and 700 m), a 3 km race, a 5 km youth course, an 8 km walk, a 10 km race, a 16 km race with 400 m of elevation gain, and a 29 km Trail XS with 1000 m of elevation gain.
The courses traverse the countryside surrounding Pélissanne and the Costes massif, resulting in steeper terrain for the longer distances compared to the shorter village routes. The 8 km walk, named La Marche de la vigne à l'olivier, highlights the local vineyards and olive trees. The 10 km race offers a faster pace with 115 m of elevation gain, while the Trail du Calabrun and the 29 km race provide a more challenging experience for experienced trail runners. Children are included with La Ronde des Pitchouns for ages 5 to 14, alongside several very short races.
Les foulées pélissannaises - Pélissanne
Les Foulées Pélissannaises is a running event held in Pélissanne, a village situated on a hill in the Bouches-du-Rhône department of southern France. The event offers participants several options, ranging from a 5 km route for children to a 29 km trail race featuring 1000 meters of elevation gain.
The courses venture into the Massif des Costes in Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur. Shorter distances include La Ronde des Pitchouns, designed for ages 5 to 14, the 8 km La Marche de la vigne à l’olivier, and the 10 km des Foulées for those seeking a quicker road race. The event also features the Trail du Calabrun, providing a more challenging trail option to complement its family-friendly and walking formats.
La foulée tullesainne - Sainte-Tulle
La Foulée Tullésaine is a local race day in Sainte-Tulle, held in the town’s municipal park with races for children and adults. Its main event is a 10 km race, and the field is growing: the 10 km drew 168 runners, about thirty more than the previous edition, while 349 people raced across all age groups from young poussins to adults.
The organizing club is ASDL, the Tullésain club led by Gérard Buignet and Jean-Luc Bou, with volunteers and local partners helping on site. The courses are set inside the park for the different race formats, and the event also links itself to October’s breast cancer awareness campaign, with some runners wearing pink T-shirts. The 10 km was won by Hicham Bouhraznine of EPM Athlétisme, formerly with Cergy-Pontoise, who went straight to the front, ran alone, and finished in 33:14.
La Rondes des Oliviers
La cabro d'or - Cabriès
La Cabro d'Or is a road race in Cabriès, Bouches-du-Rhône, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, offering races from 5 km to 15 km. The primary distances are 5 km, 10 km, and 15 km, alongside La Cabriessienne, a 7.5 km women's race. Starts are scheduled for late morning, with entry fees between 18 and 22 euros.
Olympique Cabriès Calas organizes the event, which has reached at least its 40th edition. The programme caters to various participants: road runners can select short, middle, or long distances, and walkers have 6 km and 10 km hiking options. Cabriès is situated near Aix-en-Provence, Sainte-Victoire, and Marseille, positioning the race as part of a local Provençal sports weekend rather than a large urban running event.
Tavel nature trail
Tavel Nature Trail is an October trail-running event held in Tavel, a wine village in the Gard department of southern France. The races utilize the vineyard terrain of Tavel rosé, with routes following local paths, garrigue tracks, hilly ground, and wooded sections instead of road loops. The primary options are a short trail of approximately 12 km with about 450 m of elevation gain and a longer race of around 20 to 22 km with roughly 750 m of elevation gain.
The longer race is known as Le 20 de Tavel, offering both solo and relay formats. The shorter race is identified as La Vinaventure or La Vinaventaure in various listings. Certain editions also feature a 10 km walk, Randonnée la divine, making the day accessible to non-runners as well. The event is organized by JOG'IN NATURE TAVEL, providing aid stations and changing facilities. One recent edition saw just over 300 participants.

About 10K races in Avignon
Avignon Training Notes
Avignon hosts 124 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
The path runs 6 km west to the railroad tracks and gives easy Z2 without thinking. Barthelasse Island gives you a 15 km paved loop when you want base miles with space. Le Bois du Defends has a mapped 7 km route when the legs want dirt. The Vaucluse opens up 11 signposted trail itineraries, and the routes run from 8 to 50 km. Sporting Olympique Avignon is the local name to know. Marathon D'avignon, L'avignonnaise, 10 km de la Durance, and 10 km Cité des papes are the anchor starts.
Locals ride Avignon like a bike city, with quick spins around the Tour des Remparts de la Ville d'Avignon and longer trips out when the legs need work. Avignon sits on Via Rhona (EV17) and Mediterranean by bike (EV8), so steady base miles are simple. Gravel routes start 5 km out. Véloroute de Calavon leads almost 40 km through the Luberon, and Autour du Luberon runs 236 km for big days. Mount Ventoux is where the climbs get serious. Roulons à vélo rides night trips every first Friday at 6:30 pm. Fête du vélo, Avignon vélo Passion, and Les Cyclades keep the calendar busy.
Spring gives Avignon the best rhythm for both sports, with Trail du Ventoux in March, Grand Raid du Ventoux in April, and a thick May block around La Nocturne des Papes and Trail du Grand Luberon. The temperature hit 8 °C on 28 June 2019, so locals get out early and keep intervals short. The mistral can change a ride or a tempo run fast. The temperature dropped to 5 °C on 2 February 1956. Cyclists keep flat Z2 close to town, and runners use the Rhône paths when daylight is tight.
