About this event

La Tour-en-Jarez hosts the Chestnut Run, a nature event blending forest and village atmosphere with 3 appealing distances: 8 km, 14 km or 23 km. Varied courses through greenery and woodland, ideal for family fun or a personal challenge, very close to the city. After the effort, relaxation options in Saint-Étienne and around the Pilat complete the experience, for a sporty and friendly getaway.

Do you want a race that smells like nature, the forest and a little taste of adventure right outside the city? The Chestnut Run of La Tour-en-Jarez, in the Loire, is the perfect plan to treat yourself without the hassle 🌰.

Here, you alternate between green paths and more “village” sections, with that Auvergne‑Rhône‑Alpes vibe that makes you want to extend the stroll (and not just the dessert) 🍂.

You choose your plan: 8 km for a quick, tasty thrill, 14 km to cover a bit more ground, or 23 km to serve yourself a real plate of trails and woodland… so, team small chestnut or big chestnut? 🏃‍♂️

And the best part is after: you put your feet up and enjoy just two steps from the start, with a trip to Saint‑Étienne to stroll in the city, a stop at the Musée d’Art et d’Industrie if you love local stories, a detour by Firminy‑Vert for the architecture, or a panoramic pause near the Parc naturel régional du Pilat to breathe with all lungs 🗺️.

Come solo, as a couple, or with friends: you run, share your best forest moments, then end with a drink on a terrace or a sunset stroll… and you’ll walk away with memories full in your pockets (and not just chestnuts) 🌅.
