The trail of the maquisards

15 February 2025

Become part of the legend by taking part in the Trace des Maquisards de l’Ain, the first historic night-time trail linking Ambérieu-en-Bugey to Oyonnax. This race pays tribute to the Resistance and the heroes of the Second World War, crossing emblematic maquis sites.

On the program:

  • 100 km (4250 m D+) solo: a demanding course to fully experience the spirit of resistance, to be run with headlamps.
  • 100 km relay (2 or 4): share the effort and experience as a team.
  • 42 km (1300 m D+) solo: discover the main Maquis camps between Brenod and Oyonnax.
  • 28 km (1080 m D+) solo: set off from the Place d’Armes in front of the Nantua Resistance Museum for an immersive race.
  • 10 km (150 m D+): an accessible route, ideal for families and friends, starting on frozen Lake Genin, lit up in blue, white and red.

The Trace des Maquisards de l’Ain is both a physical and symbolic race, highlighting the history and key sites of the Resistance.

Toutes les distances sont nocturnes, chargées d’histoire (plusieurs référence sur le parcours) et l’ambiance autour est super !

Le décor agrémenté de l’atmosphère autour donne une touche atypique à cette course.

La troupe de bénévoles habillées en habits des années de la 2nd guerre est incroyable.
