Trail of the Marcaires 2026

Le Trail des Marcaires 2026 is a one‑day trail running festival held in Muhlbach‑sur‑Munster in the Vosges. The programme for Sunday 31 May 2026 brings together several distances from junior races to an ultra trail, with GPX tracks published for each parcours and on‑site logistical support such as aid stations and medical coverage. The event copy and course notes emphasise panoramic ridge running across the Munster valley and visits to local lakes and viewpoints along the Vosges crêtes.

The official weekend format includes the long Trail des Marcaires (65 km) and shorter options such as the Défi de Muhlbach (34 km), La P’tite Course (12 km), a non‑timed P’tite Marche and youth categories (Jung's Trail). The organisers also confirm ITRA points and UTMB index status for the longer distances, and some bibs include a post‑race meal for specific distances as stated on the official site. Entrants are provided with downloadable GPX files for each route and practical race information on the event homepage.
