Trail du lac noir 2026

Trail du Lac Noir is a mid-June trail race held in Montsapey, a mountain village in Savoie, France’s Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Participants can select from two distances: the 12.5 km Trail de la Turche and the 25 km Trail du Lac Noir, with the latter being the more popular choice. This event centers on nature, utilizing mountain paths, forest trails, and lake scenery instead of roads. The race takes place in the Savoie mountains, offering a clear appeal: ascend, run through green woods, pass by water features, and spend the day outdoors in crisp alpine air. Montsapey is under an hour from Chambéry. Nearby attractions include Lac d’Aiguebelette and the Au Fil des Cimes treetop adventure park. Promotion is handled via Facebook, aligning with its local trail race character.
