The 19th ÉcoTrail de Paris is scheduled across Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 March 2026, marking a two‑day programme of urban and regional trail races. (leparisien.fr)) Organisers expanded the programme around a new ultra‑distance this year, listing a 120.1–123 km ultra alongside shorter options that include roughly 80–84 km, 47–45 km, 35 km, 30 km, 21 km and 10 km races. (tracedetrail.fr)) The longest course departs from the Château de Rambouillet and crosses the Chevreuse valley and several state forests, with cumulative elevation gain for the 120 km set at about 2,000 metres. (athleteside.com)) Live coverage is being delivered via GPS tracking on the LiveTrail platform and live video streams, while specialist sites are publishing rolling classifications and split times. (reference-trail.fr)) Real‑time leaderboards published on Dicodusport’s live feed show names already circulating in the top‑10 lists for the women's ranking, including Blanca Vera Escobar, Claire Hermange and Anne Merel. (dicodusport.fr)) The Salomon‑branded event retains qualifying status and technical measures: the 120 km carries UTMB/ITRA points and the ultra has strict mandatory kit rules and participant limits set by the organiser.
