Recurring 5K races near Toulon
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Le lucus bacchus
Le Lucus Bacchus is a small October race series held in Le Luc, located in the Var department of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur. Participants can choose between an 11 km race and a trail race approximately 20 to 21 km long, with both adult races commencing in the morning. The shorter race features minimal elevation gain, around 50 m, whereas the longer trail involves approximately 650 m of climbing, presenting distinct challenges for each distance. The event also offers walking and hiking options, alongside children’s trail races of 1 km and 1.5 km.
The course selection offers a mix of road-style running and trail running. The 11 km option is suitable for runners seeking a local race with moderate elevation. The longer trail presents a more demanding option, with a significantly hillier terrain. Past participation has been modest, with fields slightly exceeding 200 runners overall and around 160 finishers recorded in one 11 km race. The town hall of Le Luc en Provence organizes the event, and the affordable entry fees contribute to its atmosphere as a local community gathering rather than a large commercial event.
La boucle bleue - Sanary-sur-Mer
La boucle bleue is a small running event in Sanary-sur-Mer, on the Var coast in southern France, scheduled for a Monday in October. It offers two road-race distances: a 5 km called Course la boucle rose and a 10 km called Course la boucle bleue, with entry prices listed at 10 EUR and 15 EUR.
Course de la châtaigne - Collobrières
The Course de la Châtaigne is a 10 km village race held in Collobrières, located in the Massif des Maures region of Provence. The course follows roads and paths surrounding the village, featuring a hilly terrain rather than a flat road-race profile. This event is designed for various runners, serving as a personal challenge or half-marathon preparation for some, and as a local autumn race with a strong village atmosphere for beginners.
The route winds through Collobrières' narrow streets, past vineyards, and into the wooded hills encircling the village. Chestnuts are central to the day's theme: Collobrières is a significant chestnut-producing area. Each participant receives a jar of chestnut cream upon registration, and grilled chestnuts are available at the finish line. Additionally, a cold beer is provided post-run, local prizes are awarded to podium finishers, and a free children's race, the Pitchouns castagneurs, is also part of the event.
Energem trail - Gémenos
Gem Nature Run, previously the EnerGem Trail, is a trail-running event held in Gémenos, a village in the Bouches-du-Rhône region at the base of the Sainte-Baume massif. It takes place in October within Parc de Saint-Pons, offering two adult nature-race choices: a 15 km race with 300 m of elevation gain, or an 8 km race with 150 m of elevation gain.
The course follows the park’s trails through a 1,796-hectare area featuring greenery, waterfalls, cliffs, and the foothills of Sainte-Baume. A notable feature along the route is the old monastery, which was converted into an abbey in 1223. The event also includes four children’s races, ranging from 750 m to 3 km. Previous editions began at the square outside Gémenos town hall, prior to the transition to the Saint-Pons format.
5 Et 10 Kilomètres De Tamaris - La Seyne Sur Mer
The 5 et 10 Kilomètres de Tamaris is a road race in La Seyne-sur-Mer, on the Mediterranean coast near Toulon. Runners choose between a 5 km and a 10 km distance, and the event draws a large local field, with about 1,600 starters and sold-out entries when conditions are mild.
The route runs along the corniche beside the Toulon roadstead, tying the race closely to the waterfront rather than a closed stadium setting. CSMS Athlétisme and the city of La Seyne organize it. The newer 5 km race is part of the Var championship, and the 10 km can attract sharp performances, including a sub-31-minute winning time.
Courir pour elles - La Londe-les-Maures
Courir pour elles - La Londe-les-Maures is a small October event in La Londe-les-Maures, with 256 participants in the listed edition. It offers two timed options over the same 4.5 km distance: a run and a walk/hike, allowing participants to choose a race pace or a steadier walking pace.
The route is short but not flat, with 95 m of climbing in both formats. Entries are limited to one event per person. Bib transfers and race changes are permitted for a limited time. French participants may validate registration through the Parcours Prevention Sante system instead of a traditional medical certificate.
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.
Gemnature run - Gémenos
The Gemnature Run begins at the forecourt of Gémenos town hall, located in the Bouches-du-Rhône department of southern France. Participants will head into the Parc de Saint-Pons, situated at the base of the Sainte-Baume massif. This nature-trail event, held in October, offers two adult race distances: an 8 km discovery route featuring approximately 150 meters of elevation gain, and a 15 km trail with around 350 meters of climbing.
The courses traverse the verdant, waterfall-rich park and the slopes beneath the Sainte-Baume cliffs. Sections of the routes run alongside the winding roads of the Col de l'Espigoulier and pass a medieval abbey. The event also includes four children's races, ranging from 750 meters to 3 km, and carries on the tradition of the local trail event previously known as the EnerGem Trail.
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.
Demi-finale des Championnats de France des 5 km - Région Sud - La Seyne-sur-Mer
This is a 5 km road race in La Seyne-sur-Mer, located in the Var department of southern France. It functions as the South Region semi-final for the French 5 km Championships, connecting it to the national championship series instead of being solely a local event.
The race is scheduled for October, with the specific date yet to be finalized, and the 5 km start is set for 16:00. While a course map or route landmarks are not provided, the event is straightforward: a single 5 km run in a Mediterranean port town near Toulon, intended for athletes aiming for qualification within the French championship system.
Course Algernon
Course Algernon is a race and walk in Marseille, taking place on the second weekend of October. It begins at the Palais du Pharo and concludes at the Plages du Prado. Approximately 7,300 individuals participate, with both able-bodied and disabled participants sharing the same event. The schedule features a 5 km walk for those aged 9 and older, a 5 km run for those 14 and older, and a 10 km run for those 16 and older, all starting together at 10:00.
The course travels from Pharo towards the Prado beaches, following the Corniche. This directs the race from Marseille's old harbor area towards the city's southern coastline. A sports and cultural association organizes the event. Its most notable characteristic is its inclusive field: runners, walkers, groups, minors, adults, and people with disabilities all participate together on the same October morning. The number of entries is substantial for a local race, with about 8,000 bibs offered for this edition.
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.

About 5K races in Toulon
Toulon Training Notes
Toulon hosts 78 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 the coast early, then climb into the pine smell before breakfast. The Sentier du littoral de Saint-Raphaël à Saint-Aygulf gives runners 14 km with 350 m of gain, and the Tour of Cap Sicié keeps things sharp over 18 km. Notre-Dame du Mai climbs for 6 km, while the circuit of the Toulon ridges stretches to 25 km when you want proper base miles. The brief names no dedicated run club, so locals use Ekiden de Toulon, Trail Poursuite du Mémorial, Trail du mammouth - Toulon, and Montée pédestre du Faron - Toulon as anchor days.
Locals ride out of Toulon with the sea in the background and the climbs waiting close by. The route is 7 km and stacks up 1,562 m of ascent, so it is the honest interval day. The Toulon to Le Lavandou route runs 50 km and gains +410 m, with Almanarre, the Old Salt Pans, and Port-Cros National Park in the mix. The brief names no dedicated cycling club, so riders orbit routes and events like Triathlon de Toulon, TriloopRace Triathlon de Toulon, and Concentration Toulon. Mont Faron, Mont Caume, Massif des Maures, and Massif de l’Estérel hold the climbing.
May and June are the clean pick for riding, and locals use them for steady Z2, longer coastal days, and gran fondo legs. The narrow sandy paths need care because pedestrians fill them fast. Runners still go early, and cyclists still watch the wind in this region. January averages 1°C while also landing as the windiest month. The Mistral changes the feel of both sports, so locals keep the coast flexible and use the hills when the day lines up.
