Trail of the Airon Valley 2026

The Trail of the Airon Valley is your direct ticket to wild-side Normandy, starting from Loges-Marchis, in Manche, where the forest rolls out the red carpet and the ponds make you want to look up more often than at your time 🌿.

Here, you don’t “run a race”—you move through a backdrop: trails scented with humus, quiet stretches near the water, undergrowth that softens your steps… and that little feeling of escaping everyday life at every turn 🏞️.

You pick your adventure: 7, 9, 11, 12, 18 or 28 km, and even kids’ races to come as a family (yes, mini trail runners get their moment of glory too) 👟.

And after the effort, stick around: pop over to Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët for a stroll, head to Mortain and its waterfalls, or treat yourself to a grand interlude at Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey (yes, it’s very close on a weekend scale) 🏰.

Looking for an easy-going plan as a couple or with the family: a relaxed walk around the ponds, a little picnic in the greenery, and end the day reliving the race over a drink in the village—here, people talk as much about the trails as the good times, and that’s worth more than any podium 🎯.
