Les Bézous d’Châtaignes 2026

Looking for a trail that smells like nature, old stone, and good vibes? Les Bézous d’Châtaignes in Avessac serves it all up on a platter, with that little taste of adventure in Pays de la Loire 🌰.

Here, you alternate woodland paths, corners that breathe calm, and sections where history is never far away: between castles and culture, you’ll be amazed without overthinking it 🏰.

You pick your format: 9 km to treat yourself, 16 km for just the right challenge, or 26 km to chase that big smile at the finish… and there are also kids’ races to bring the whole crew along 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦.

The common thread is simple: you come to move, you stay for the atmosphere, and you leave with the feeling that you’ve traveled just a stone’s throw from the start line (and that you’ve earned your handful of chestnuts) 🍂.

After the race, enjoy the area without going miles: go for a stroll in Redon and along the harbor, head over to La Gacilly for its alleyways and open-air exhibitions, make a detour to the Château de la Groulais in Blain, or treat yourself to a break on the banks of the Vilaine to unwind in slow mode 🚲.

So, are you coming to get bézousé by the scenery and tame the trails of Avessac, or are you leaving the chestnuts to the squirrels?
