Trail Et Marche Du Cep - Pernand Vergelesses 2027

The Trail et Marche du Cep is a two-day running and walking event held in Pernand-Vergelesses, a village in the Côte-d'Or region of Burgundy known for its wine. Saturday features walking routes of 10 km and 20 km. Sunday is dedicated to trail races, typically covering distances of approximately 10 km, 17 km, and 27 km. The event utilizes local paths, not roads, meaning even the shorter distances involve significant elevation gain: around 270 m for the 10 km trail, about 600 m for the 17 km, and approximately 850 m for the 27 km. The courses traverse vineyards and forests above the village, offering participants an intimate view of the Burgundy wine region. The 17 km trail is a popular choice for many, providing a challenging trail experience with substantial climbing without the commitment of the longest route. This combination of walking distances and trail races appeals to hikers, local running club members, and individuals seeking a more intimate French countryside event connected to its environment.
