Race of the Black Maws 2027

If you want a trail race with real character, come test yourself at the Course des Gueules Noires in La Ricamarie, on the doorstep of Saint-Étienne, where mining history and trails echo each other without a sound 🪨.

You pick your format: 5.24 km if you want to enjoy yourself without burning out, or 10 km if you feel like pushing a bit further into the woods! 🌳

And after the effort, stay in the area: go catch some fresh air up high in the Pilat Regional Natural Park, stop by Saint-Étienne to discover the Cité du Design, swing by the Mining Museum to understand where the race’s nickname comes from, or simply go relax around the Geoffroy-Guichard Stadium to feel the local pulse ☕.
