The Calonne Trail 2026

If you’re looking for a race that smells of Normandy and the simple pleasure of running without overthinking it, The Calonne Trail in Cormeilles ticks all the boxes 🌿.

Here, you alternate between nature and in-town sections, with that little taste of local adventure that makes you feel like you’re traveling… without going far 🧭.

Format-wise, you’ve got plenty to enjoy: 8.5 km to have fun on a lively course, or 16 km for a more generous outing—the one where you tell yourself “okay, now I’ve really gone for a proper run” 🏃‍♂️.

And if you come with the whole crew, it’s even better: there are children & junior routes, perfect for turning the day into a mini family festival (and for giving them the bug… the good way) 🎈.

After the effort, stick around: take a stroll in downtown Cormeilles, head to Bernay for a nice walk, go breathe some fresh air around Lisieux and its basilica, or pop over to Pont-l’Évêque to extend the Normandy postcard vibe (and find a terrace that tells you “come back”) 🍽️.
