Trail hivernal du Sancy Mont-Doré - Le Mont-Dore 2027

The Trail hivernal du Sancy Mont-Doré is a winter trail race in Le Mont-Dore, located in the Puy-de-Dôme department of central France. It takes place in January and provides two mountain-running choices: a 23 km course with 900 m of elevation gain and a 33 km course with 1,515 m of elevation gain, both commencing at 09:00. The race is situated in the Sancy area, meaning the primary challenge involves winter footing and consistent elevation rather than just distance. Recent participation has been approximately 1,400 runners, with CPLVR 63 - Club FFA organizing the event. The format is suitable for trail runners seeking a cold-weather mountain race that does not require ultra-distance capabilities.
