Piquemiette 500 2026

Welcome to Jougne, in the Doubs, where the fir trees smell wonderful and the terrain has character (and you do too) 🌲.

The Piquemiette 500 is a race that doesn’t cheat: you come for the vertical, you leave with memories in your calves (and a smile) 😅.

Here, the terrain makes you lift your head: natural trails, a Haut-Doubs mountain vibe, and that little “come on, just a few more steps” feeling that makes you proud once you’re at the top 🏔️.

The big plus is that the event also thinks of the younger ones: kids & juniors courses, perfect if you want to come as a family and share the adventure rather than just telling the story 🧒.

And after the effort, I’ll guide you just a stone’s throw from the start: go for a stroll at the Fort de Joux (in La Cluse-et-Mijoux), get some fresh air in Pontarlier for a walk around town and a tasty break, head to Lake Saint-Point to relax by the water, or cross over to Les Rousses to extend the getaway with even more scenery.

You want a race that stings just enough and lets you discover an authentic corner, between nature and altitude: the Piquemiette 500 is waiting for you—so when are you climbing? 🚀
