Trail des Cadoles — édition 2026

Trail des Cadoles is a single‑day trail running event scheduled for Saturday 13 June 2026, centred on the Château de Brancion in Martailly‑lès‑Brancion, France. The race is known for its largely single‑track routes that traverse Natura 2000 protected zones and woodland, offering dramatic views of the Grosne valley and a finish framed by the château at dusk. The course descriptions emphasise technical, narrow paths with frequent short climbs and the distinctive local stone features called cadoles that punctuate the route.

The 2026 edition presents multiple distances (27 km, 18 km, 11 km and a 6 km découverte) with separate evening start waves and registration currently open on the official site. On‑site services listed include aid stations (ravitos), a secure bag drop (consigne) and food and drink options (buvette/petite restauration), and the event is organised by the local association Asso Trail Tournus. The atmosphere is promoted as convivial and attentive to participants, with route variants designed for different levels and a sunset finish at the château for several races.
