  • RandonnĂ©e des Roses Cortambert

    This multi-track athletic manifestation consists of a series of hikes ranging from family walks to high-intensity nature trails through the vineyards. Historically, the event was established to integrate the sport of trail running with the direct discovery of the local environmental and hydraulic heritage. It reinforces a regional identity characterized by stamina, ecological awareness, and the communal celebration of the Burgundian landscape along ancient paths. Participants follow varied routes crossing protected forest paths and stopping at festive refreshment points managed by local village volunteers and farmers. The social impact is significant, as it mobilizes hundreds of residents and provides a significant boost to the cultural life of small Highland towns. Researchers find value in documenting the role of large-scale hiking festivals in promoting sustainable development and active tourism in protected zones. This gathering preserves the legacy of the local path network by ensuring its maintenance and historical relevance.
