Raid des petits Suisses Normands - Pont-d'Ouilly 2027

The Raid des Petits Suisses Normands is a two-day multisport raid held near Pont-d’Ouilly and the Roche d’Oëtre in Normandy, taking place on a weekend in late April. Les Petits Suisses Normands, the nature-raid division of Pont d’Ouilly Loisirs, organizes the event, and the association is affiliated with the French Triathlon Federation. The first day is competitive, offering two timed formats for teams of two: the Aventurier raid spans approximately 70 km and must be completed within 7 hours, while the Sportif raid covers about 35 km within a 4.5-hour limit. Both timed routes begin and end at the Pont-d’Ouilly leisure base, including a passage through the Roche d’Oëtre site. The Aventurier format, designed for experienced multisport teams, links together run-and-bike, canoeing, trail running, roller-and-bike, orienteering, and mountain biking. The Sportif format maintains the outdoor raid spirit with orienteering, mountain biking, trail running, and canoeing. The second day features a non-timed Discovery raid without rankings; teams of two or three navigate about 17 km in up to 3 hours, combining orienteering, mountain biking, climbing, and canoeing, with accompanying children permitted.
