Trail of the land of Sully 2026

Of course not! No need either to Su(p)lly-e us, everyone is welcome in Rosny-sur-Seine 🏃.

In the month of September, when the call of school terms becomes more insistent and the August holidays start to turn into vague summer memories, the Athletics Club of Rosny-sur-Seine doesn’t give up ⚔️. Some sunny rays persist, and it’s best to enjoy them ☀️. On this occasion, an event offering 4 nature races is organized annually in the small department of Île-de-France in the Yvelines. On the program: discovery trail, a short trail and a walking course 🥾. The numbers don't lie and promise routes of 11 km, 19 km, and 31 km for running enthusiasts 🏃. The Sunday athletes (literally in this case 😆) will have the right to a nice loop of 15 km walk to keep their legs moving over time 🌬️.

If you came for a trail 100% greenery 🌱, you will not be disappointed. The deal is simple: forest, forest, and more forest. After 30 km surrounded only by grass and foliage, you may even wonder if civilization ever existed 😬. Thankfully, the volunteers will remind you that the spirit of community is always present and will encourage you to move forward. When it comes to elevation, nothing to make a fuss about, even if in the area, the specialties are not lacking... 🤤 The buffet, we’ll talk about it once at the finish! No more than 800 mD+ for the largest 30 km tour, it's pretty cool to hear 😮‍💨. The 19 km of trail also complete with only 500 mD+, which should be enough to make your thighs heat up, but should leave you some strength to finish the race 💪. In any case, no matter which route you choose, you will zigzag between the oaks and the beeches towards the finish line like a little squirrel searching for its daily nut 🐿️. Put away your latest carbon pair in the closet, here you’ll need to get your hands feet dirty, for real 😎.

And if you are still looking for an extra motivation, let us tell you about the surroundings 🗣️. If you come with company, the famous Thoiry zoological park and its safari are just a short drive to greet the lions 🦁. Whether we are young children or we have passed forty, animals always inspire the same admiration 🤩. History enthusiasts will also have a vast playground in front of them, with the majestic Château de Versailles at hand 🏰. And if you wish to prepare already, you can even watch the eponymous series to seem like a culture buff 🤓. But for many, the interest of journeys lies in the stomach rather than the knowledge 😭. And like all the other boxes, the western department of Île-de-France also ticks this one 😳. The Napolitan Rambolitain, the Mérinos terrines, the Paris-Brest or more recently the Yolin, you can oscillate as you please between sweet and salty 🧂.

Don’t wait for the leaves to fall 🍂, put on the right pair, and join the Fran-sully-ian (Parisian) adventure! ❤️‍🔥
