Mondial De Running Des Energies Vertes - Besancon 2026

Mondial De Running Des Energies Vertes - Besancon is a trail-running event in Besancon, Doubs department, eastern France, with races in September. The main options are a 17 km trail with 900 m of elevation gain and an 8 km trail with 350 m of elevation gain. Both are discovery trails, focusing on short, hilly off-road running instead of flat road racing. The 17 km race begins in the morning, with the 8 km race starting an hour later. A 1 km relay takes place later in the day. This relay differentiates the event from a standard trail meet, allowing stronger runners to tackle the steeper routes while teams or newer participants can join the shorter race.
