The Père Malfait Trail Race, held at Bussey Brake Wildlife Management Area near Bastrop, Louisiana, offers three distances: 50K, 16 miles, and 8 miles. The course features a mostly flat trail around Bussey Brake Reservoir with some varied terrain, including holes and ant piles. Runners experience a mix of sun-exposed and shaded sections, with two aid stations providing water, electrolytes, snacks, and hot food at the start/finish.

The event embraces local folklore, named after the swamp creature Père Malfait. Participants receive swag including a long-sleeve shirt, socks, and a portable power bank. The race atmosphere is friendly, with vegan food options and discounts for military and first responders. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
