Urban trail arédien - Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche
The Urban Trail Arédien is an evening urban trail race held in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, a town in Haute-Vienne south of Limoges known for its medieval lanes and old stone streets. Participants begin at Villa Sport and can select from a 5.5 km run, an 11 km run, or an 11 km relay for teams of two. The shorter race consists of one loop, while the longer race covers two loops. A 6 km walk and non-timed children's races are also available, making the event suitable for local clubs, families, company teams, and runners seeking a brief, brisk town course over a lengthy mountain trail.
The course incorporates asphalt, paths, climbs, narrow streets, and stairs, with minimal easy road sections, requiring rapid pace adjustments rather than consistent effort. Pom'sy organizes the race, which has a participant cap of 400. The shortest race has an affordable entry fee. A refreshment stop is available during the run, and the evening concludes at the congress hall with a DJ, grilled food, and beverages. The event also features a challenge for the club or company team with the highest number of participants, fostering a team atmosphere even for solo runners.
Run de la team - Coutras
Run de la team - Coutras is a running and walking event at Lac des Nauves in Coutras, held to raise money for breast cancer research. Team Coutras Triathlon organizes it with the City sports service. The program begins with children’s races, followed by adult run and walk options later in the morning.
The adult races use simple lake-loop formats: 4.5 km requires two laps around the two lakes, and 9 km requires four laps. Walkers start simultaneously with the 4.5 km runners but proceed in the opposite direction and may complete any number of laps. Children have distinct distances, ranging from 750 m for under-9s to 2 km and 3 km races for older participants. Low entry fees ensure the event is accessible to families and regular runners alike.
Trail du PNR Périgord-Limousin - Bussière-Galant
Trail du PNR Périgord-Limousin takes place in Bussière-Galant, within the Périgord-Limousin regional natural park. The event began in 2018 and features a 36.5 km trail race, a 12 km trail race, a 3x5 km relay, and a 12 km hike. This structure accommodates long-distance runners, shorter-course participants, relay teams, and walkers.
The routes traverse paths in Bussière-Galant, Saint-Pierre-de-Frugie, Saint-Priest-les-Fougères, La Coquille, and Ladignac-le-Long. The 36.5 km course winds through the forests of Arsac, Vieillecour, Coubefy, and Charbonnier. Last year, over 420 individuals participated: 63 in the long race, 143 in the 12 km, 31 relay teams, and 124 hikers. Approximately one hundred volunteers supported the event along the courses.
Les crêtes du Cocc - Coulounieix-Chamiers
Les Crêtes du Cocc is a nature trail race held in Coulounieix-Chamiers, located in France’s Dordogne region. It offers two off-road distances in mid-October. Participants can select either a 12.5 km loop or a 24.5 km loop, accommodating both those seeking a shorter trail run and those prepared for a more demanding challenge.
Both courses are designed as single loops, simplifying the race format: begin, navigate the marked path, and conclude without completing multiple laps. The terrain is noted as suitable for refining running technique, with the 24.5 km course being the more frequently chosen option.
Courir à Saint Junien
Courir à Saint-Junien is an autumn running event held at the athletics stadium on Rue Leo Lagrange in Saint-Junien. The program includes a 5 km race, a 10 km race, children’s races, and a solidarity walk, suitable for regular runners, beginners, families, and walkers.
The race focuses on a friendly local meet rather than an elite competition. Entry is 8 euros for the 5 km and 12 euros for the 10 km. The solidarity walk raises funds for France Parkinson.
Le trail de la voie romaine - Pierre-Buffière
Le Trail de la Voie Romaine is a trail-running event held in Pierre-Buffière, Haute-Vienne, within France’s Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. It offers routes ranging from 9km to 42km, taking place in October. The event is designed for off-road runners, featuring four race distances and a 12km nature hike.
The courses traverse the Limousin countryside near Pierre-Buffière, incorporating viewpoints, climbs, and descents instead of a flat, fast track. The primary event is the 42km Marathon Axter 87 TP, complemented by 26km, 16km, and 9km options. The 26km and 42km races are qualifiers for the UTMB Index. AGPB organizes the event, with volunteers providing support to participants on the course and at the finish line.
10 km de la ville de Saint-Junien
The 10 km de la ville de Saint-Junien is a road race held in Saint-Junien, a town in Haute-Vienne, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. It takes place in autumn and is organized by ASSJ Athlétisme. Adults can compete in either a 5 km or 10 km race, while younger runners have their own shorter events of 900 m and 1.8 km. The event welcomes a wide range of participants, from regular club runners to those seeking a friendly local race distinct from large city events.
The race begins at the athletics stadium on Rue Léo Lagrange, proceeding through a loop of the town center. Both adult distances share a similar course through the hilly town center, with the 10 km offering a longer iteration of this local circuit. Practical arrangements are straightforward and focused on the runners: official timing is provided by OK-TIME, with refreshments, changing rooms, and a live GPS tracking option available for friends and family to follow participants.
Course éco-solidaire - Saint-Raphaël
The Course eco-solidaire in Saint-Raphael is a race series held on a Monday morning in October. It offers short distances, with options including 0.8 km, 1.3 km, and 2.4 km runs, alongside 5 km and 10 km races. This variety caters to children, beginners, walkers, and runners seeking a challenge without a long-distance commitment.
The 5 km route features 172 m of climbing, and the 10 km route has 344 m of positive elevation gain, indicating these are not flat courses. Starts are staggered throughout the morning, beginning with the shortest races and featuring multiple 5 km slots later. This structure creates a community race day atmosphere rather than a single, large start.
Trail de l'Armistice - Condat
The Trail de l'Armistice is a local trail-running event in Condat, France, centered on the Armistice Day commemoration. It features two morning races: a 5 km trail with 150 m of elevation gain and a 14 km trail with 400 m of elevation gain. The 5 km is also available as a two-person relay, with one runner completing a 2.5 km uphill section and the other running the downhill section.
The event is organized by the sports association of Collège Georges Pompidou in Condat, with support from Condat Athlétisme Club. It connects to the school’s outdoor sports curriculum and its Classe Défense initiative. Each race commemorates a soldier from World War I whose name is inscribed on Condat’s war memorial. Proceeds are distributed to remembrance organizations, Souvenir Français and the Union Nationale des Combattants, and to fund a student trip to the Toulon naval base, supported by the GSC unit.
Marche nordique auginacoise - Augignac
Les foulées de Coursac
Les Foulées de Coursac is a two-day trail running event held in Coursac, a village in Dordogne, France, during November when trail races in the department are less common. The event offers more than a single race: participants can select daytime trails, a night trail, combined night-and-day challenges, canicross events, a hike, and a children's race. The main trail distances are 8 km, 12 km, and 20.5 km, with elevation factored in, extending some options to 9.5 km, 15.5 km, or 27 km.
The short course has approximately 150 m of elevation gain, the 12 km routes climb about 350 m, and the longest day trail ascends about 650 m. The most unique option is the combined format, beginning with a 12 km night trail followed by either a 12 km or 20.5 km day trail. A 12 km hike is also available with the same 350 m climb as the mid-distance trail, alongside a 1.5 km children's race. The Comité des Fêtes de Coursac organizes the event, which has a history spanning many editions; older formats included 5 km, 10 km, 16 km, 19 km, and 20 km races.
Trail du chambon - Eymouthiers
Trail du Chambon is a weekend trail-running event held at the Chambon outdoor center in Eymouthiers, Charente, France. It caters to various runner levels: beginners can select short introductory routes, experienced trail runners have longer, more technical options, families can enjoy gentler courses, and children have their own mini-races.
The routes utilize the natural terrain surrounding Chambon, featuring dense forest sections, open clearings, valleys, steep climbs, quick descents, and technical ground on the more challenging courses. The outdoor center provides a practical base for the weekend, offering modern facilities, accommodation for participants and their companions, and an ecological approach aligned with the event's nature-focused setting.

About 5K races in Périgueux
Périgueux Training Notes
Périgueux hosts 37 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Locals run easy along the Isle river when they want clean Z2 and no drama. The city centre gives you quick laps through Cité and Puy-Saint-Front before work. Périgueux Running keeps the trail crowd honest and organizes the Grand Périgueux Nature Trail. The Grand Périgueux nature trail gives runners 8 km, 12 km, and 25 km options, with the 12 km course taking 300 m and the 25 km course taking 600 m of gain. The Semi-marathon de l'ASPTT Grand Périgueux and the 10 km du canal de Périgueux work as anchor races.
Locals ride the Isle Valley greenway for steady base miles, because the route alternates road cycling and greenway along the Isle river. The city centre works well by bike for crossing Périgueux, getting to the market, and moving between quartier sud, Cité, and Puy-Saint-Front. Le Cyclo Club Périgueux Dordogne 24 carries the racing side, with Le véloce club and CYCLO CLUB PERIGOURDIN in the local story too. The Critérium Cycliste de la Ville de Périgueux gives the calendar its crit edge. Périgord roads climb enough, so locals say it is not the Alps, but not the Netherlands either.
Spring and autumn suit both sports best, because the oceanic weather keeps Périgueux mild enough for long runs, longer rides, and proper intervals. Summer brings warm to hot days, so locals take the Isle river early, keep Z2 honest, and save harder work for cooler slots. Winter stays cool to mild, which keeps running alive through Les foulées roses de Périgueux, Christmas Campus Run - Perigueux, and steady club habits. Cyclists use winter for base miles, cyclocross legs, and quieter greenway rides before the Duathlon de Périgueux and Triathlon de Trélissac come back into view.
