Trail des Sangliers, live.

Two days of Ardennes trail around La Roche

The Trail des Sangliers is a spring trail running weekend in the forests and hills around La Roche-en-Ardenne in the Belgian Ardennes, organised by Trailrun.be.

The 14th edition takes place on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 March 2027, and for the first time it is spread over two days. The old Grand Raid has left the programme, replaced by renewed courses and seven distances from 13 to 75 km.

Saturday heads south on wild, technical ground with plenty of singletrack. The 75 km (2,457 m of climbing) starts at 6:45, the 55 km (1,948 m) at 8:00 and the 25 km (875 m) at 12:00, with a 13 km (435 m) as well. Sunday changes character and goes towards Borzée and Samrée, where steep Ardennes slopes shape the course: the 40 km (1,260 m) starts at 8:30, the 27 km (985 m) at 11:00, and there is a 17 km (695 m).

New in 2027 are two weekend challenges with a combined ranking. The Sangliers 30 adds the 13 km on Saturday to the 17 km on Sunday, and the Sangliers 50 combines the 25 km and the 27 km. They suit runners who want two very different days on the trails rather than one long effort, while the 75 km is the big test of the weekend.

The terrain is demanding, with steep climbs and technical descents, so even the shorter courses call for some trail experience. Entries are open on the organiser's registration platform, and the organiser counts more than 2,000 participants.

On Livebib you can follow a participant who chooses to share their own live position from the phone they carry. This is not the organiser's timing, and the official results come from the organiser.
