The Tour de Sagnard, a free-technique cross-country ski race, takes place on Sunday 24 Jan. 2027 at La Corbatière, in the municipality of La Sagne. Adults and children race over distances from 250 metres to 16.5 kilometres.
The story
The Tour de Sagnard is organised by Ski-Club La Sagne, with about fifty volunteers. It was already on the calendar in February 2017, with online registration and timing. The race is part of the Viteos Ski Tour, a cross-country skiing series in the canton of Neuchâtel.
In 2023, the race was the second stage of the Viteos Ski Tour, the day after the La Brévine stage. More than 180 skiers took part, including 45 children’s pairs. France’s Emilien Louvrier won the men’s 20 km in about 48 minutes. Laura Jeanneret won the women’s race and also took the Swiss university title.
Who organises it
Ski-Club La Sagne organises the race. Pierre Renaud chaired the organising committee in 2023. The technical contact for the 2027 edition is Laurent Singelé. Timing and registration are handled by MSO.
