Défi des Pestiférés

The Défi des Pestiférés is a unique trail running event established in 2019, set in the picturesque Vosges forests of Raon l'Étape, France. Inspired by the Backyard Ultra format, participants tackle a loop of approximately 6.5 km, with a one-hour time limit to complete each lap. Runners can choose between three challenges: the Pestif’, the Pestif’Hard, and the Pestif’Mix, with varying distances and elevation gains.

The event encourages personal goal-setting, allowing participants to run solo or in teams. With a focus on health and safety, the race promotes a supportive atmosphere for both beginners and experienced runners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
