Poker Trail Mont Garrot 2027

The Poker Trail Mont Garrot is a spring charity trail race held in Saint-Suliac, situated on the right bank of the Rance in Brittany. This village is one of France's most beautiful, and the race takes place at the Mont Garrot site overlooking the river. Its fitting nickname, “Coup de bluff en Bretagne,” reflects the poker theme: participants compete not only for themselves but also to secure donations for one of two chosen charities. The race employs a short-loop, backyard-style format instead of a single fixed-distance trail. Each lap covers approximately 5.5 to 6 km, and runners have 45 minutes to complete it. Those who exceed this time are eliminated, while others can stop at their discretion. A maximum of 10 laps can be completed, with the overall classification determined from the tenth lap onwards. Approximately 80 runners are anticipated, each supporting either Association Mario & Mimo or Leucémie Espoir 35. A prize pool of €1600 will be distributed among the supported associations. The course is located within a Natura 2000 protected area, between the pointe de Grinfolet and the pointe du Mont Garrot, with trail runner Florent Beaufils serving as the race sponsor.
