The 2024 route

New to the sports course: For the first time, the sports course is offered in a loop. The mountain bike stages can therefore be done as a whole team.

  • Step 1 : The sporting event will begin with a 4 km race, ideal for warming up!
  • Step 2 : The athletes will then ride their mountain bike for 24 km towards the Canal du Midi through the Lauragaise countryside.
  • Step 3 : Arriving at the village of Montesquieu-Lauragais, an orienteering course will allow them to discover the village.
  • Step 4 : The route will then take them back to Thésauque Lake by mountain bike for 10 km.
  • Step 5 : The last event will certainly be the most emblematic, since a 3 km canoe loop will await our athletes.

An arrival village rich in entertainment

The October 5, from 9:00 PM til 17PM, the Canalathlon finish village is open to everyone throughout the day. Located on the edge of Thesauque lake, the entertainment village will have many surprises in store for you: a market of local producers and artisans, fun and “eco-responsible” activities, etc.
