What if your vacation was also an opportunity to stay fit in an exceptional setting?
From the Élégance Suites Hôtel****, in the heart of Bois-Plage-en-Ré, explore the island's three most beautiful running trails. Between marshes, forests, coastline, and picturesque villages: lace up your running shoes and enjoy the Ré landscape at your own pace!
Head to Sainte-Marie-de-Ré, a 15-minute drive from the hotel. From Port Notre-Dame cove, set off on an 8 km (approximately 1 hour 15 minutes) trail as varied as it is exotic.
On the program: a former marsh, forest trails, the wild coastline, and even some charming village streets.
Hoopoes might well accompany your strides... as might the scent of pine trees floating in the air. A complete immersion between flora, fauna, and the ocean.
For a shorter outing (4 km, approximately 30 minutes), head north of the island to the Lilleau des Niges Nature Reserve.
From the Maison du Fier to the Banc du Bûcheron, you'll cross peaceful landscapes of marshland, silence, and wide open spaces.
Here, every step is a breath of fresh air, and every view a natural spectacle.
If you prefer to run by the sea while admiring the island's typical architecture, this route is for you!
From Barbette Park, follow the ramparts, pass by the citadel, and continue to Cible Beach. A 3.5 km (25-minute) route, perfect for a morning outing. You can also leave directly from the hotel, following the cycle paths to Saint-Martin-de-Ré or reaching the nearby beaches.
The island is flat, the landscapes are varied, and the sea is never far away... Ideal for a run that's both enjoyable and energizing.
After your running session, enjoy the Élégance Suites Hôtel's heated outdoor pool, perfect for relaxing!
