The event takes place in and around Mallièvre, a small village in the Vendée department of the Pays de la Loire region, on Sunday 20 December 2026. Participants choose between four marked routes of 8, 10, 14 and 20 kilometres, with the shorter options well suited to walkers and the longer ones aimed at trail runners. The name Rando et Trail signals that hiking and trail running share the same morning, and the winter date means paths through the surrounding countryside are likely to be soft and possibly muddy underfoot. Entries are handled through the organiser's HelloAsso page, and the event is organised by the association En Avant les Gazelles.
