Demi-Marathon Estival
The Demi-Marathon Estival is part of the Classique Estivale presented by Les Classiques Capitale in partnership with Village Vacances Valcartier. For its first edition at the park, the event pairs running with a day at an amusement park, and the organizer presents this format as a first in Canada.
The half marathon is described as a linear, flat and fast course through a forested setting, promoted as conducive to personal bests. The event also offers multiple shorter routes that run through the Base de plein air de Sainte-Foy and nearby sectors, with a mix of trails and easy urban sections.
Distances:
- 1 km family and introductory distance.
- 2.5 km route through trails and developed park areas.
- 5 km "Le Subtil" combining trails and gentle urban sections.
- 10 km route highlighting open natural spaces at the Base de plein air de Sainte-Foy.
- Half marathon linear, flat forest course promoted for speed.
The program emphasizes accessible courses for a range of ages, a festive summer atmosphere, and the option to add park access during registration at a special rate. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
