Belfort in autumn: a cultural and sporting destination for enthusiasts of every kind
Belfort in autumn is an invitation to experience intense moments, both for culture lovers and for sports enthusiasts seeking a challenge. On the programme this year: the Foire aux Livres, a not-to-be-missed literary event, and the Belfortrail, a legendary endurance race!
The Foire aux Livres: a month to dive into the world of reading
With more than 250,000 new and second-hand books, Belfort's Foire aux Livres stands out as one of the largest literary events in eastern France. Numerous stands and activities are offered every weekend, punctuating the month of books in partnership with the city's libraries. The programme is rich and varied, catering to every age and every taste.
Whether you are a fan of novels, historical accounts, short stories or essays, Belfort's Foire aux Livres is a unique opportunity to unearth rare books and share your passion for literature. Join us from 10 October to 3 November 2024 to enjoy this convivial and enriching event!
Belfortrail and Girotrail: the challenge for trail-running enthusiasts
Autumn in Belfort is also the ideal time for sports enthusiasts who want to push their limits in the heart of nature. The Belfortrail, organised by the association Territoire Sport Nature, is a major challenge with its 55 km of technical trails through the southern Vosges massif. Part of the Trophée des Vosges, this trail run is aimed at experienced runners who love demanding routes and breathtaking viewpoints.
For less seasoned runners, the Girotrail, over a distance of 22 km, offers an equally memorable experience with a more accessible route. New this year: La Savoureuse, a 100% women's race of 11 km, perfect for discovering trail running in a warm, supportive atmosphere.
Join us on 20 October 2024 to take part in this sporting adventure and discover the beauty of the Vosges landscapes in autumn.
Whether it's a night of recovery after the Belfortrail or a moment of relaxation before a new day at the Foire aux Livres, our Hôtel Les Capucins in Belfort will be the ideal place to recharge your batteries and extend the autumn experience in complete peace of mind.
