Foulées de Vertou is a race in Vertou, near Nantes, with routes that move onto paths, narrow lanes, parks, and vineyard tracks. Organized by La Vaillante de Vertou with the FSCF, it returns for its 34th edition and offers three choices: a 24 km trail, a 10 km nature race, and a 5 km race.
The courses run through Vertou’s green spaces and alleys, enter the Vertavien vineyard, and pass Château du Coing beside the Maine. At the Parc du Loiry finish village, runners find entertainment, a bar, fast food, oyster tasting, a selfie booth, and massages from professional physiotherapists. The first three men and women in each race receive prizes, one euro per bib goes to Le Rire Médecin de Loire Atlantique, and the Vertou Sèvre Santé health center attends to promote Octobre Rose.
