La Pouilly-Sancerre covers 20 km by road from Pouilly-sur-Loire to Sancerre, situated between two Loire wine regions. Held in autumn, the main race is framed as an epicurean outing, complemented by a 20 km walk on the identical point-to-point course for those preferring the distance without competition.
The route crosses vineyard landscapes and follows the Loire riverbanks, making the setting integral to its appeal. The broader event program commences and concludes in Pouilly-sur-Loire for shorter distances: a 5 km night race, a 7 km gourmet hike, and a children's race. Registered runners, active walkers, families, and those interested in wine are all welcome. The additional activities highlight local culture, featuring an animation village, tastings guided by Pouilly winemakers, and a participant visit to La Tour du Pouilly Fume. This race is part of the French Run series.
