Défi des Couleurs Simard

The Défi des Couleurs Simard is a vibrant trail running event held in the heart of nature at Mont-Sainte-Anne, Quebec, during the peak of autumn foliage. It offers a variety of race distances, including trail runs of 11 km, 17 km, 26 km, 32 km, and 42 km, featuring mostly single-track, rustic, and sometimes technical trails. Additionally, there are scenic forest trail races along the Jean Larose River ranging from 1 km to 21 km on firm, stone-dust paths.

A special 5 km nocturnal trail run with headlamps provides a unique, non-competitive experience. The event is celebrated for its breathtaking fall colors and diverse terrain, making it a favorite among trail runners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
