The first urban trail in Creuse
Created in 2024, the Trail de la Vallée des Lissiers is the first and only urban trail in the Creuse department. This original 10 km route follows the streets and alleys of Aubusson, with steep inclines characteristic of this medieval city built on the slopes of the Creuse valley. Participants discover or rediscover the architectural heritage of the city throughout their race.
Run through the history of tapestry
The route crosses the emblematic sites of Aubusson linked to its tapestry history: the Chapitre, the Tour de l'Horloge, the old manufactories, and the historic districts of the lissiers (weavers), those artisans who have been weaving the famous Aubusson tapestry since the 15th century. It is a unique way to discover this city, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
An eco-responsible and local event
The Trail de la Vallée des Lissiers stands out for its eco-responsible commitment: refreshments are made up of local products and waste is reduced thanks to the use of reusable cups. The objective is twofold: to highlight the heritage of Aubusson and to promote environmentally friendly sports practice.
