Participate in the Urban Trail of Montmartre, the charity race at the heart of Paris, whether you walk or run, on September 20, 2026. An exceptional trek through the neighborhood up to the Sacré‑Cœur, with a hefty dose of elevation!

For a bit of a challenge, how about tackling the hundreds of steps that thread through Montmartre, with a constant incline? The Urban Trail of Montmartre Hill invites you to push yourself while exploring this iconic Parisian district. Join a solidarity race, which can also be run as a walk, on Sunday, September 20, 2026. Your efforts will support the Fondation du Souffle, which funds research into respiratory diseases.

Are you ready to cross the streets of Montmartre with a 150-meter positive gradient? You'll need all your stamina and courage to climb the 1,200 or so steps you'll encounter along the way, alone or in a group, over a distance of almost 7 kilometers. In the heart of the city, this energetic little trail will take you past some of the prettiest spots in the village, and give you a magnificent view of the capital as you arrive at the Sacré-Coeur square.

Through this unique and original event, the Fondation du Souffle aims to publicize its missions and raise awareness of the need for physical activity. Along the route, there will be entertainment to encourage runners and spectators alike, who will be able to take part in a truly festive stroll through heritage and performance.
