The event in a few words

At the Festitrail of Saint-Benoît-la-Forêt, you come looking for green, the real kind, and you leave with memories in your legs… and in your head 🌲.

Here, the scenery is the forest in grand format: winding trails, shaded sections, the scents of the undergrowth, and that little “expedition” vibe that makes you forget everyday life 🧭.

You choose your dose of adventure: 10 km to treat yourself without burning out, 18 km for a beautiful journey into the heart of the trees, or 26 km to live a real story from start to finish 🏁.

And if you come with family, it’s perfect: there are also kids & juniors courses, so everyone gets their share of the fun (and so the youngest can “trail run” without overtaking you too much… well, we’ll try) ! 🎈

After the effort, pop over to Fontevraud Abbey for a visit that calms things down, head to Chinon to wander the lanes and enjoy a terrace, or go get some fresh air along the Vienne for a relaxed walk in recovery mode 🏰.

If you want to extend the fun as a couple or with family, set your sights on Azay-le-Rideau and its postcard-perfect château, or plan a little evening stroll in the wooded spots around Saint-Benoît-la-Forêt: here, we don’t run after time, we run with it 🍷.
