Course Description

Feu Follet is a 20ish mile looped course with approximately 1,000 feet of elevation gain around the beautiful Lake Chicot. The course begins at the pavilion and runs down the road for 0.25 miles to the trailhead where you begin a clockwise loop. Aside from the start/ finish area and a short car bridge, the entire course is on trail. The State Park marks the course with orange blazes on the trees, but we will have pink confidence flagging along the trail.
The only potential wrong turns go to the privative campsites, these will be flagged, but worst case scenario you add a half mile out and back.
The trail is very runnable with only a few steep climbs along the course and mostly in the first half of the race.
