Les Foulées Coursoises takes place in Cours, a village in Deux-Sèvres, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, in early November. The primary event is a 12 km nature trail, suitable for less experienced runners yet challenging enough to be more than a simple run.
The course appeals to those who prefer trail running, forest terrain, and a focused local competition over a large urban event. Recent years saw just over 100 participants. The event prioritizes a friendly atmosphere, thorough organization, and personal challenges for runners. Some listings mention a 13.5 km road race, indicating variations may occur between editions.
