Urban trail des sardines - Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie 2027

The Urban Trail des Sardines is a semi-nature, semi-urban running event in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie, a Vendée town with a fishing port closely associated with sardines. It takes place on a Saturday afternoon in April and offers two distances: 7 km and 13 km. The longer race includes approximately 100 meters of elevation gain. The routes combine local trails, beach sections, and town streets, offering runners more variety than a standard road race. The 7 km race begins at the race village on Quai Garcie Ferrande, while the 13 km race starts from Quai de la République. Team RUN IN SGXV organizes the event, with online registration available prior to race day.
