The longer race is known as Le 20 de Tavel, offering both solo and relay formats. The shorter race is identified as La Vinaventure or La Vinaventaure in various listings.

This variety accommodates runners, walkers, families, and individuals seeking a brief nature excursion instead of a lengthy road competition. The course winds through olive groves, peach orchards, and sections of the Crau Nature Reserve, a unique protected steppe environment in Europe.

The participants will likely consist of trail runners, walkers, local residents, and individuals primarily motivated by the charitable cause.
