On 29 August 2026, the GirouTrail returns to Giroussens, offering at least two main trail distances: 22 km (≈ 600 m+ elevation) and 12 km (≈ 300 m+ elevation), along with a 10 km non-timed randonnée and children’s trails. The courses meander through forests, undergrowth, agricultural fields, riverbanks of the Agout, and gentle slopes, culminating in a final climb back to the village. The start/finish is centered in Giroussens, often on the village square or near the town hall. The event emphasizes local scenery, community atmosphere, environmental respect, and supporting charity causes (e.g. “Le Sourire d’Eden”). As a semi-nocturnal trail, it often starts in the late afternoon, letting runners enjoy cooler evening conditions.
