AQUATERRA - Monday 13 July 2026 - 15th edition

AQUATERRA is a lakeside festival of nature sports held around the Lac de Bort‑les‑Orgues; the site bills the gathering as a «festival des sports nature» and the 2026 programme centres on trails, randonnées and swimrun races. The festival highlights dramatic terrain around the EDF dam and Château de Val, with courses that cross the Corrèze, Cantal and Puy‑de‑Dôme departments and showcase a rare passage through the Barrage EDF. The event mixes short family‑friendly options and demanding endurance routes, offering something for walkers, trail runners and swimrun teams alike.

Notable USPs for the 15th edition include a swimrun round of the French championship run on an unprecedented two‑day format with a night bivouac, routes that deliberately incorporate a unique crossing of the dam, and a charity element whereby registrations support the local Refuge Animalier Bortois. The programme lists multiple trail distances from 8 km to 85 km, four randonnée options (including an animal‑friendly "Rando Cart") and three swimrun distances, with detailed regulations and maps linked from the organiser. Entrants are directed to the official site and the Njuko registration hub for full rules, GPX files and up‑to‑date start lists and timetables.
