Foulées en Montagne Noire 2026

If you’re in the mood for a nature trail that smells of undergrowth and wide-open spaces, the Foulées en Montagne Noire in Cuxac-Cabardès will put you straight on the right track 🌲.

Here, you come to treat yourself in Occitanie, in the Aude, with landscapes that alternate between rugged terrain, playful paths, and panoramas that make you look up (yes, even when it stings a bit) ⛰️.

As for distances, you pick your adventure: 10 km for fun without overthinking it, 24.6 km to go for the “Montagne Noire, white heart” version, and even a 10 km relay if you want to share the effort and the post-race jokes 🏃‍♂️.

You can also come in a friendly, laid-back mode: a tourist walk to enjoy without rushing, Run & Bike to play as a duo (you run, the other handles the steed… then you swap), and kids’ races so the whole tribe gets its moment of glory 🚴.

And after you’ve “blacked out” your shoes on the trails, there’s plenty to keep the fun going nearby: pop over to Carcassonne and its fortified city, stop by the village of Lastours and its castles, breathe easy at Lac de la Cavayère for a refreshing break, or wander the lanes and markets of Carcassonne on the lower-town side to finish off with a drink on a terrace 🍷.
