Ultra Trail Calendar — Occitania 2027
The limestone south of France: the Causses de Millau are a technical limestone plateau, canyons, and continental Mediterranean climate, home to the Festival des Templiers, one of Europe's most crowded trail events.
2 races, august – october 2027
Races marked "estimated date" are projected from last year's calendar. We confirm each date as soon as the organiser publishes the official 2027 schedule.
Climate in Occitania: Spring and autumn are the best windows: mild temperatures and less risk of extreme heat on the exposed plateau. Summer can exceed 35°C with barely any shade, which is why the Festival des Templiers is held in October, taking advantage of cooler temperatures and autumn light.
