The Urban Trail de Noël takes place in Le Crès, a small town in the Hérault a few kilometres north east of Montpellier, on Sunday 13 December 2026. Runners take on a single 7 km urban trail route, which means a course through the town itself, mixing paved streets with paths and green spaces rather than open mountain terrain. The event falls in the Christmas season, so the run is staged in a festive setting with the town decorated for the holidays. It is a short, accessible distance that suits runners of most levels looking for a local winter outing. Exact start times, registration details and the full programme are published by the organisers on the town website.

Le Crès is a town in the Hérault department in the Occitanie region of southern France, a few kilometres north east of Montpellier.
An urban trail is a run that uses the streets, paths and green spaces inside a town rather than open countryside. You can expect a mix of paved surfaces and softer paths, but nothing technical or mountainous.
The race is named the Urban Trail de Noël and is held in mid December, so it takes place during the town's festive season. Details of any decoration, costume encouragement or post race celebration are confirmed by the organisers.
Yes. An urban trail through a town centre is straightforward to spectate, since spectators can move between points on foot and see runners several times along the way.
