The Trail d'Avenas is a winter trail running event held in Deux-Grosnes, a village in the Rhône department of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. Runners choose between three distances of 12 km, 30 km and 41 km, all of which follow trails through the rolling hills and vineyard country of the Beaujolais and Haut-Beaujolais area. The 2027 edition takes place on Sunday 17 January, placing the race firmly in mid-winter, so expect cold temperatures, soft and often muddy ground, and short daylight hours.

The courses run on trails through the hills and vineyard countryside around Deux-Grosnes. In January the ground is typically soft, with mud in the wooded and field sections, so trail shoes with good grip are the sensible choice.
Mid-January in this part of France is usually cold and damp, with temperatures that can sit close to freezing at the start and rise only a few degrees through the day. Rain, frost and occasionally snow are all possible, so pack layers, a windproof layer and gloves.
