Pays de Monts Trail Run, Saint Jean de Monts

From 10th to 11th February 2024

This trail run takes entirely place in a natural setting. The race runs through the Pays de Monts forest and on the dune paths. It provides the competitors with wonderful views over the ocean and the Breton-VendĂ©e marshes. The sandy soil and narrow coastal paths make it a difficult race but an excellent preparation for the spring marathons.

Trail in Pays de Saint Jean de Monts in Vendée

The trail run allows participants to ‘come through’ some of the wonderful locations in the Pays de Monts forest such as the Daviùre dune, the Saint Jean de Monts golf course, panoramic viewpoints, the Hippodrome de L’Atlantique (racecourse) and le Pey de la Blet. All are accessed via steep and undulating routes through the woods, paths over the dunes and a section on bridlepaths. The runners follow the arrows which are in place along the course.

Roads become a public space under the watchful eye of the ocean.
