The event in a few words

The Lieues Foreziennes are your go-to meet-up in Bonson, in the Loire, whenever you feel like treating yourself between town, nature and forest—without having to choose 🌲.

Here, you set off right from the heart of the village, you quickly slip away toward the green corners of Forez, and you come back with that little taste of “one more league, and I’m going back” 😉.

You pick your adventure: 5 km to warm up and enjoy it to the fullest, 10 km for the perfect pleasure/challenge balance, or 21 km to go for a big breath of fresh air and the kind of satisfaction that sticks to your smile 🏁.

And after the effort, a little stroll along the Loire to come down gently, a trip to Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert for a walk by the water, a detour to Saint-Étienne if you want a coffee in town and a bit of culture, or head to Montbrison for the Forez vibe and a well-deserved gourmet break 🥐.

Come for the race, stay for the area: you’ll run for leagues… and head home with a head full of ideas ✨.

A distance for every taste
