BORN OF THE WOODS—SHAPED BY THE RIVER
KICK OFF YOUR SEASON IN THE OUTAOUAIS ON MAY 1 AND 2, 2027!
ONE WEEKEND—TWO EVENTS
The Outaouais is a true hidden gem. Its beauty, vastness, and warm climate make it the perfect setting for trail and road races to kick off your running season.
TRAIL DES COLLINES
A land of forests and hard work, the Outaouais has been home to generations of loggers, pioneers, and explorers. Our ancestors roamed these hills in search of their riches—now it’s your turn to conquer them.
An event tailor-made for the start of the season: distances ranging from 6 km to 80 km on a mix of technical trails and fast-paced paths in the heart of a vibrant region.
Hills Half Marathon
An authentic experience where every stride brings you closer to nature. An intense athletic adventure far from the hustle and bustle of the city, on a lightning-fast course along the Gatineau River.
Perfect for setting a new personal record after months of training or for preparing for your summer goal.
