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-Vendée marshes. The sandy soil and narrow coastal paths make it a difficult race but an excellent preparation for the spring marathons.
