The Thiézac Night Run

La Noctambule Thiezacoise is a night-time community sporting event held in Thiézac in the Cantal that combines trail running, walking routes and a children’s race. The principal trail options are a 28 km course (available solo or as a two-person relay) and a 15 km trail, supported by shorter randonnée routes and a 1 km race for younger children. The listing for the 2026 edition shows the event on Saturday 26 September 2026 and highlights a convivial atmosphere with a post-event meal open to all. Participants are encouraged to consult the organiser’s homepage for final practical information and confirmation.

The courses run on upland terrain in the Cantal and include significant climbs, with the 28 km route shown with about 1,400 m of ascent and the 15 km route with about 700 m of ascent, offering a challenging night trail experience. Race starts are staggered in the evening (the 28 km solo and relay begin at 18:00, the 15 km at 19:00 and the children’s 1 km at 17:00), while the site is reported open from mid-afternoon into midnight to allow registration and social activities. Details such as precise packet pickup, formal prize information and full regulations are handled by the organiser and should be confirmed on the official event pages. The event is presented as a local, largely community-focused occasion with on-site registration options noted by organisers.
