Trail and Nordic walking circuits in Saint-Nabord
Following the growth in popularity of trail running and Nordic walking, a trail running center project is taking shape in Saint-Nabord . Six trails, including one specifically designed for Nordic walking, will enhance the already comprehensive range of outdoor activities available.
Whether you see a beginner or an experienced trail runner, these routes are suitable for all levels: simply let yourself be guided by a color rating system inspired by alpine skiing.
Looking for a gentle introduction to trail running? A 5km route along the Moselle River is perfect for you. More experienced and looking for a challenge? More technical and fun routes, up to 46km, will test your limits.
Of great diversity, the routes make you discover emblematic places
such as Noirgueux moraine, but also more intimate places, such as Montiroche and the Tacaumont ridge offering you spectacular views of the region.
Our trail station not only lists routes, but also equipment ensuring good practice of the activity: markings, GPS track, water point or even a running circuit & an outdoor fitness area installed at the Perrey stadium in Saint- Nabord.
It is also visible and labeled via OnPiste , a trail running application.
Appeared in the Scandinavian countries in the 1970s, it was originally practiced by cross-country skiers as training during the summer months. More dynamic than hiking, Nordic walking has the principle of accentuating the natural swinging movement of the arms using two sticks. The body is thus propelled forward.
Accessible to all, this new practice will delight young and old, whatever their physical condition. It is thus a family and friendly sport that brings together a large audience!

It all starts with the Infernal Trail of the Vosges...
A showcase for trail running in our region, the Infernal Trail des Vosges returns every year in September to Saint-Nabord!
To allow everyone to train, the town's Trail Station was built in 2023. The creation of various trail and Nordic walking circuits, in multiple formats for all abilities, allows you to experience the Vosges mountains in a different way!
