The Route du Poisson is a sporting and competitive horse-driving event between Boulogne-sur-Mer and Paris in northern France. Created in 1991 thanks to the help of the national haras (stud-horse farms) at Compiègne, this 24-hour competition of endurance is organized in September. It is open to draft horses who, traditionally, transported the fresh fish to Parisian markets before the opening of the railroads. Originally biennial, it became triennial starting in 2005. The largest horse-driving competition of its kind in Europe, it attracts about 300,000 spectators and is distinguished by the displays of the power and versatility of the draft horses, including the traction of small boats.

- La Route du poisson est une manifestation sportive et populaire d'attelage équestre. Créée en 1991 grâce à l'aide du haras de Compiègne, cette course d'endurance de 24 heures est organisée en septembre pour relier Boulogne-sur-Mer à Paris. Elle est ouverte aux chevaux de trait qui, traditionnellement, transportaient ainsi le poisson frais jusqu'aux marchés parisiens avant l'ouverture des voies de chemin de fer. À l'origine biennale, elle est devenue triennale depuis 2005. Plus grande course d'attelage du genre en Europe, elle attire environ 300 000 spectateurs, et se ponctue d'épreuves mettant en valeur la puissance et la maniabilité des chevaux de trait, comme la traction du flobart.
