The event in a few words

On this 14of July, how about running after the king's flower? 👑 No Revolution ⚔️ or Storming of the Bastille. Here, you will land straight into the Trail de La Fleur du Roy 🌹, in Corrençon-en-Vercors, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, to celebrate the trail on the day of the National Holiday! 🎉 This event, created by the Amicale des Sapeurs-Pompiers de Corrençon-en-Vercors 🚒, is a true challenge for runners 🏃‍♂️ seeking thrills and breathtaking landscapes 🤯. The course will weave through magnificent forests 🌲, ascend mountain peaks 🏔️ and traverse altitude ⬆️. A real breath of fresh air in the heart of nature! 🌿

Two distances are on the program 🗓️: a Trail XXS and a Trail XS. Whether you prefer short trail for a sporty escape, or long trail for an endurance challenge 🥵, there's something for everyone! Ready to flower the tarmac? 🌼 Let's go! 😜 In an exceptional setting, you will tread the varied terrains of the Vercors: trails, meadows, paths… You won't have time to get bored! 😎 Let's talk numbers: how many kilometers will you have to cover to earn the Fleur du Roy? 🤔 14 km or 24 km, it's your choice! But where there's a mountain, there's also elevation gain 📈. So you'll have to count 539 mD+ for the XXS race and double that for the XS race, which is 1,073 mD+. Yes, being a trail runner also requires counting skills! 🤓 Nonetheless, you won't need to engage your brain on the course 🧠; it will be your legs that need waking up ⏰. The routes for both events are very hilly and will use the GR91, crossing the entire Vercors! 🤩 You'll have the chance to discover the region's highest points 📍: the Croix de La Sambue, the Belvédère des Granges, or the hamlet of La Fleur du Roy… You'll be left speechless! 😵

And speaking of Vercors, let's explore what you could do after your race! 😁 Less than an hour by car 🚗, you could head to Grenoble and visit the Bastille, for a panoramic view over the city 🌃. You could also opt for a family walk 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 at the Jardin des Dauphins or enrich your mind at the Musée de Grenoble 💡. If you're more into nature, the Parc Naturel Régional du Vercors 🏞️ is a true gem with its stunning landscapes 😲. You could even go paragliding for an unforgettable aerial view of the park 🪂. For the less adventurous 😅, the winter sports resort of Villard-de-Lans 🎿 is just a stone's throw from Corrençon-en-Vercors! 😌 You can take a tour to enjoy the summer season sports 🌞: mountain biking, summer luging, or even horseback riding 🐎. For a moment of relaxation, head to the Thermes d'Uriage 💧, ideal for recovering from such a race! 🧖‍♂️

So, ready to take on the challenge of the Trail de La Fleur du Roy? 👊
