Running and trail

Close your eyes. Can you feel the white rock of the Causses under your feet, the warm breeze sweeping across the plateaux? A few kilometres further on, the air becomes cooler: you plunge into a deep valley, in the heart of a forest where moss covers the trees and the water of the river laps at the foot of the cliffs. That’s what running in Grand-Figeac is all about: a succession of contrasts that awaken the senses with every stride!

Forging relief

the mind

Here, you’ll find a playground that’s fun, but can also be demanding. The Causses du Quercy, with its stony, sometimes technical paths, will have you running across vast plateaux surrounded by low dry-stone walls, caselles and dolmens. The Lot and Célé valleys offer dry climbs and fast descents, with breathtaking views to catch your eye. The Limargue plunges you into a verdant world of rolling hills and oak foresttrails. The Ségala, on the other hand, has a mountainous feel to it, transporting you into a wilderness of lakes and streams,chestnut, beech and firforests. The diversity of the trails promises endless possibilities, whether you’re a beginner or an experttrail run ner!

The alliance of sport

and escape

Running in Grand-Figeac is more than just training: it’s an immersive adventure. Along the way, you’ll come across roe deer skulking at the edge of the woods, wild orchids hiding in the grass, and a medieval village clinging to the cliffs, as if frozen in time. And when you look up, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramas of meandering rivers.
