Foulées Valdéricourtiennes is a summer nature race in Vaudricourt, near Béthune, offering options for runners, walkers, and children. Participants can choose between a 9 km trail run or walk and a 19 km all-terrain race, accommodating both those seeking a shorter outing and those wanting a more challenging countryside route.
The 19 km course crosses four villages and includes ascents of two slag heaps, lending it a distinct local mining heritage character and greater difficulty than a flat village race. Younger participants have dedicated 500 m and 1 km races in Bois Saint-Casimir. Motivated volunteers, well-placed refreshment stations, and a relaxed summer atmosphere contribute to the event's welcoming, informal feel.
