Bordeaux

Bordeaux is gravel and long-distance cycling territory — the region hosts the Bordeaux-Dax Gravel Explore Expériences (325km) and GravelMan Series Bordeaux (500km), both serious multi-day rides across the Aquitaine plateaux and pine forests southwest of the city. Runners find flat to gently rolling ground along the Garonne riverbanks and through the city's parks, with the local racing scene dominated by shorter distances; the real elevation and challenge come on the bike, where gravel routes push 30-40km northwest into the Landes. For cyclists seeking accessible distance, the Gravel Explore Winter Edition (120km) offers a winter-friendly introduction to the region's sandy and woodland terrain.
