Trails in Val-de-Marne

This area offers you a true nature run where the asphalt gives way to forest trails, as well as challenging urban walks 🪜. You will often run with breathtaking views of Paris or historical monuments such as the Pavillon Baltard 🤩. Enjoy the cool loops of the Marne to stretch your stride 💦. It's the ideal place to work on your speed and proprioception on terrains that change every kilometer, from technical undergrowth to landscaped docks 👟.

If you think Val-de-Marne is a walk in the park, wait until you tackle the famous slopes of Nogent or Chennevières! The positive elevation treacherously accumulates with steep climbs and endless stairs that will heat up your quadriceps as much as a small mountain pass mountain ⛰️. Expect intense and sporadic effort. It's a perfect territory for relentless pushes that test the heart 🥵.

To help you decide, the department hosts events that have become benchmarks for Parisian trail runners. Think immediately of the Urban Trail of Nogentais, a perfect mix of heritage and cardio with its hundreds of stairs 🏛️. It's impossible not to mention La Sagittaire, offering a surprisingly technical course, or the Vivicitta in Thiais for its accessible and friendly formats 👌. Finally, for fans of a festive atmosphere, keep an eye on the night challenges around the Lake of Créteil that often hold pleasant surprises 🌙.

The trail calendar in the 94 is rich and adapts to all seasons, often blending intense sports effort with the post-race guinguette spirit 🎉.
