La Course de l'Escaouette is a vibrant running event held in the picturesque coastal village of Chéticamp, Nova Scotia, as part of the Festival de L'Escaouette along the scenic Cabot Trail. The event features timed 5km and 8km races, as well as a free Kids Fun Run. The 5km course follows sidewalks with a turnaround near the local church, while the 8km route extends to the end of La Pointe du Havre Road, including road crossings and water stops at turnaround points.
Participants benefit from real-time chip timing, prizes for top finishers, and merchandise options. Strollers are allowed in the Kids Run and 5km walk, but dogs are prohibited for safety reasons. Parking is available on site. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
