Trail des Rois Maudits - 41 km 2026

The Trail des Rois Maudits 41 km is a mountain-style trail race held in Les Andelys, Eure, Normandy, on a Sunday in late September. The 41 km designation refers to a mid-long distance option; the actual course measures approximately 43.4 km with about 1,703 m of elevation gain and 1,731 m of descent. The event provides four distances, ranging from 13.2 km to almost 60 km, allowing participants to select anything from a brief trail run to an extended, challenging day. Organisers refer to it as a “Trail Montagnard en Normandie,” indicating its focus on steep, demanding terrain within a region typically known for river valleys and historic towns rather than mountain races.
