Trail Maré Air Calédonie 2025: A Weekend of Sport, Celebration and Discovery in the Heart of the Loyalty Islands
22 October 2025
After the success of the 2024 edition, the 4th Trail Maré Air Calédonie returns on Saturday, December 6, 2025, for a weekend filled with sport, festivities, and exploration in the heart of the Loyalty Islands.
Organized by our partner Challenge Organisation in collaboration with the Plages et Falaises de Laxec Development Committee and the tribe of Eni, this event has become a must for nature lovers and trail-running enthusiasts alike.
Three Courses for Every Level
The Trail Maré Air Calédonie 2025 offers three routes designed for all levels and ambitions:
– Grand Raid – 20 km, 160 m elevation gain (start at 6:30 a.m.)
– Mini Raid – 8 km, 40 m elevation gain (start at 7:00 a.m.)
– Family Run – 3 km (start at 8:00 a.m.)
Each registration includes a shuttle to the starting line and a local buffet dinner on Saturday evening.
Participants can also choose from accommodation packages with local hosts or camping options, including breakfast and round-trip transfers from the wharf or the airport — a wonderful way to experience the warmth and hospitality of Maré.
A Weekend of Sports and Celebration
Beyond the race itself, Maré will come alive with the Fête du Littoral, held at the tribe of Eni. Markets, performances, local cuisine, and cultural activities will extend the experience in a friendly and festive atmosphere.
To make your trip even easier, Air Calédonie offers a 15% discount on round-trip flights between Nouméa and Maré (from December 3 to 10, 2025). To benefit from this offer, bookings must be made via convention@air-caledonie.nc, with proof of race registration attached.
Registrations are open until midnight on November 30 — don’t miss this opportunity to experience an unforgettable trail between lagoon and cliffs!
