Triathlon Sud Vendée

Triathlon Sud Vendée takes place in September in La Faute-sur-Mer, on the Vendée coast within France’s Pays de la Loire region. The event provides S, M, and L distances. The S and M distances are open to solo participants or relay teams. Separate races are held for children and juniors, catering to participants from young beginners to long-course triathletes. The longer race features a 1.9 km swim and an 85 km road cycling segment prior to the run. The course is situated around L’Aiguillon-la-Presqu’île and the low coastline adjacent to the Marais, offering a flat coastal environment instead of a mountainous route. It is a notable fixture on the French triathlon calendar in the Pays de la Loire, with individual competitors, relay teams, and families participating over the same race weekend.
