Trail du Bandiat 2026

The Trail du Bandiat is your nature meet-up in Abjat-sur-Bandiat, in Dordogne, where the forest tells you stories and you write your own, stride after stride 🌲.

No need to overdo it here: you come to enjoy yourself, challenge yourself just enough, and breathe deep in an authentic atmosphere—green, real, alive ✨.

Three formats, three moods: 8 km if you want to have a blast without getting too “bandiat-ed” (promise, it stings less than it makes you smile) 😄! 15 km for the perfect balance between discovery and a great adventure. And 31 km if you’re after a real long-haul escape—the kind that leaves you with memories in your legs and your head 😮‍💨.

The common thread is simple: Nature, forest, and that little thrill when the path turns and you think, “ok, that’s why I came” 🏞️.

And after the effort, keep the good times going nearby: pop over to Nontron for a stroll and a good spot to eat, get some fresh air around Piégut-Pluviers and its lively corner, or treat yourself to a contemplative break at the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park, just next door. If you want to finish in postcard mode, head to Brantôme, the “Venice of Périgord”, perfect for a waterside walk as a duo or with the family 🏰.

You come to run, yes… but above all, you come to travel through a Dordogne that knows how to be sporty and gourmet, without any fuss ❤️.
