La Pelouséenne - 11K

The entry fee is TBC, but for a local 11K trail event in France, you can generally expect a fee between 10 and 20 euros. This usually covers your race bib, timing (if applicable), and sometimes a small refreshment or souvenir. Payment is typically via credit card during online registration. Check the official event page for the exact fee and what's included once registration opens.

Check-in will take place at the event headquarters, Salle de la Noue in Pelousey. Plan to arrive at least 45 minutes before the start to collect your bib, sign any waivers, and warm up. You'll likely need to show your ID or confirmation email. The exact opening time and end time will be announced with the final race instructions. Don't forget to pin your bib securely and bring it with you to the start area.

Pelousey is in the Doubs department of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, close to Besançon. The nearest major train station is Besançon-Viotte, about 10 km away, and the nearest airports are Dole-Jura (approx. 60 km) and EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg (approx. 150 km). From Besançon, you can take a local bus or taxi to Pelousey. Check for any shuttle services organised by the race for participants.

For an 11K trail with 200m of elevation, good grip trail running shoes are strongly recommended to handle natural terrain, especially if the ground is wet or muddy. Mandatory kit is unlikely for a short trail, but you should bring a water bottle or small hydration pack (especially in warm weather), a light windproof jacket, and your phone. Always check the final event instructions for any specific requirements, but the main thing is to wear comfortable trail-ready footwear.
