31th Course des Pavés

Third stage of the third edition of the Grand Chasseral Trail Series

The Paved Road Race brings together young and old alike for a popular, sporting and friendly event.

Set among historic alleyways, forest trails and breathtaking views of the lake, each edition is a tribute to local energy and a love of sport.

* Trail de 7 Lieues:

This demanding course is designed for mountain and trail runners, or simply for those who like to work hard in the great outdoors. An excellent target for the end of the year. This trail is the third stage of the Grand Chasseral Trail Series.

* Time trial:

Taking part in a running time trial in Switzerland is something of a rarity. Running individually, not knowing where the other competitors stand and finding out your result at the last minute are just some of the elements that give our traditional 7.5km time trial its charm.

* Nordic Walking:

A magnificent route that will help you discover or rediscover La Neuveville between vineyards, forest paths and the lakeside.

* Youth races:

A course specially designed for the youngest athletes.

The day ends with the ‘children with parents’ categories, a magnificent and unique experience!

* Witch's Race:

2 objectives for this free fancy dress category: to end the day with a fun run and... to remember the many witches present in 17th century La Neuveville.

* Mérite+ race:

Inclusive category for people with disabilities. The Mérite+ race is offered in collaboration with the Fondation un Grand Sourire and is certified UNIFIED EVENT.

* Registration before race day: Online, by paying-in slip and credit card.
