The Usiers Hills 2026

If you’re looking for a trail that smells like Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, with just the right amount of nature and a “lively village” vibe, The Usiers Hills in Goux-les-Usiers is exactly your kind of playground 🏞️.

Here, you alternate between lively sections right in the heart of the village and big breaths of fresh air out on the ridgelines and trails of the Doubs, with viewpoints that make you want to slow down… but not too much, promise 🤭.

You pick your adventure: 5 km to treat yourself without burning out, 10 km for the perfect “I’m pushing myself” middle ground, or 20 km to go chase the hills with calves that sing 🎽.

And if you’re coming as a family, it’s spot on: there are also U14 and U16 races, so everyone gets their finish line and their story to tell 🧒.

After the race, save a bit of energy, because just a stone’s throw from Goux-les-Usiers you can head to Ornans and its lovely Loue River, take a spin over to Bonnevaux (and its abbey), swing by Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne for that valley atmosphere, or push on to Besançon and its citadel if you want to end the day in full “wow” mode 🏰.

The perfect plan: a shower, a drink on a nearby terrace, a little quiet post-meal stroll… and you’ll head home with tired legs but a head full of fresh air—in short, Usiers you’re going to love it! 😉
