Les Foulées de Beauregard

Les Foulées de Beauregard is a mid-June trail and walking event in Saint-Genis-Laval, in the Rhône just outside Lyon. It is based in a public park and offers adults a choice of two trail distances, 9 km or 14 km, plus a 9 km walk. Children and juniors have their own races, ensuring the day includes participants of all ages. The event attracts hikers, casual runners, club runners, and competitors, with over a thousand finishers at a recent edition. The course is set within a park, not on roads, and the 14 km trail is the most popular choice. The event also supports a charity cause, with organizers emphasizing sport, solidarity, and good humor. The appeal is straightforward: choose a distance, run or walk in one of the area's notable parks, and share the start line with everyone from young runners to adults seeking a challenging trail run.
