Nordic 4B takes place in Passirac, located in France’s Sud-Charente region, and is organized by Sport Santé Sud-Charente. The event focuses on exploration and well-being, not solely on competition, and its routes accommodate both pole users and walkers without poles.
Participants can select from 8.5km, 13.5km, and 25km routes, all conducted in a freedom-style format. The 25km route also serves as a timed stage for the Challenge Marche Nordique du défi sportif Charente. Additionally, a 7km nature walk is guided by landscape engineer Julien Briton, and approximately thirty local volunteers scout the Passirac trails beforehand to ready the course and assist participants.
