Daffodil Cross-Country Race 2026

The Daffodil Cross-Country Race is your nature meet-up in Valserhône, at the gateway to Ain and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, where the forest rolls out the red carpet for you. 🌼

You come to treat yourself on a 13.3 km course that smells of woodland, flowing trails, and little bursts that bring your smile back. 🌲

Here, there’s no need to overdo it : you take it in, you let the green do the work, and you enjoy a simple, warm, no-fuss atmosphere… except for the daffodils, which put on a show. 🏞️

And if you want the perfect post-race plan : go check out the Pertes de la Valserine for a cool, spectacular spot, then swing by Fort l’Écluse to get a bit of height over the area. 🏰

If you want to extend the chill time, head over to Bellegarde-sur-Valserine (very close by) for an easy stroll, or push on to Gex for a getaway in the Pays de Gex and a well-deserved drink on a terrace… you’ve earned it. 🍷

You leave with happy legs, lungs nicely emptied just the way you like, and the urge to come back next year to “daffodil it” all over again. ⭐
