Trail de la Contrebandière

The event Trail de la Contrebandière takes place in Raismes (Nord, Hauts-de-France) and is presented by the organisers of the Course des Terrils. The 2026 edition is scheduled for Sunday 27 September 2026 with a listed 06:00 start for the principal long trail. Official pages for the event list a principal long trail of around 45 km with approximately +450 m of climb, and identify the Château de la Princesse in Raismes as the start line. Participants are directed to the organiser site and the external registration form for entry and practical details.

The route is promoted as a nature-focused trail across the terrils (slag heaps) around Raismes, with on-course aid stations and a full refreshment at the finish. Practical details such as precise cut-off times, full prize information and a final route GPX should be checked with the organiser before race day. Multiple public listings show minor inconsistencies in published distance and climb (some listings reference longer distances or different elevation figures), so entrants are advised to confirm the final course and race-pack information on the official Course des Terrils site.
