Chaumussay Foot Race 2026

If you’re in the mood for a trail run that smells like forest, little paths, and ponds, the Chaumussay Foot Race will speak to you 🌲.

Here, you run in the heart of Indre-et-Loire, in an authentic Centre-Val de Loire version: green as far as the eye can see, sections that zigzag between woodland and forest edges, and that “village cheering loudly” vibe that pushes you on when it starts to sting 🏞️.

You pick your playground: 5 km to enjoy yourself without burning out, 8.3 km for the perfect compromise, or 17 km to savor it longer and come back with legs full of stories 🥾.

And if you come with family, there are also kids’ races: enough to turn the outing into a real family party, with the little ones wanting to “do like the grown-ups” (and who often end up teasing you) 🎉.

After the effort, stick around—you’re perfectly placed to extend the day: head to Descartes for a stroll along the Creuse, take a detour to La Roche-Posay for a wellness break, or go get some fresh air at the Pinail Regional Nature Reserve and its thousand mysterious ponds. And if you want to finish postcard-style, Angles-sur-l’Anglin offers the perfect medieval backdrop to debrief the race on a terrace ☀️.
