Le Trail des Lucioles 2027

Le Trail des Lucioles is a night trail race held in Frontignan, a coastal town situated between Montpellier and Sète in southern France. Participants, whether runners or walkers, begin after sunset, with headlamps recommended, to traverse the elevated terrain above Frontignan beneath the night sky. The event welcomes seasoned trail runners, casual participants, and solidarity walkers, offering options for solo or paired entries. The course winds through the massif surrounding Frontignan, emphasizing navigation through dark hills rather than pursuit of a fast time on flat ground. Its name translates to “Trail of the Fireflies,” aptly reflecting the headlamps and nocturnal nature of the event. A brasucade, a local mussel barbecue, is provided, offering a distinctly Frontignan conclusion following the exertion on the trails.
