Trail de Jouques 2026

Trail de Jouques offers runners three trail distances starting from the village of Jouques in Bouches-du-Rhône, located in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of southern France. Scheduled for mid-October, it is firmly in the trail-and-nature category, featuring 15 km, 27 km, and 50 km options, alongside separate races for children and juniors. The 15 km La Course Nature is a loop with 250 m of climbing. La Jouquarde, the 27 km middle option, has 500 m of climbing and attracted over 100 participants in a past edition. Le Big Trail covers 50 km with 1,850 m of elevation gain, representing a significantly greater challenge than the other two courses. The event incorporates the playful phrase “Ça va jouer des coudes,” which roughly translates to runners potentially jostling for position as the race progresses.
