Urban Montlouis trail - Montlouis-sur-Loire 2027

Urban Montlouis Trail is a small urban trail race in Montlouis-sur-Loire, starting and finishing at Place de la mairie. It sends runners through the town streets rather than onto a classic countryside trail, with entry capped at 300 participants. The main race is open to runners over 15 and has a modest entry fee, while a free children’s race gives younger runners aged 6 to 11 their own event. The route uses Montlouis itself as the terrain: narrow lanes, flights of steps, and hills make it more varied than a flat road race. The point is to see the town from odd angles, moving through its streets and viewpoints on foot instead of just passing through the centre. It suits runners who like short, lively courses with changes of rhythm, and the limited field keeps the event local and manageable.
