The event in a few words

If you like it when the trails smell of moss, when the forest makes you forget the clock, and when your bib number actually means something, Anthony Challenge Strides in Saint-Symphorien-des-Bois is exactly your kind of getaway 🌲.

Here, you come to treat yourself… and to support a charitable cause, in that simple, warm atmosphere where everyone knows each other (or recognizes each other at the first smile in the undergrowth) 🤝.

As for the routes, you choose your dose of adventure: La Sensfrine to get your legs going, La dréesienne to stretch the fun, or Le semi d’Anton to give yourself a real escape into nature (promise, it stings just the right amount) 🥾.

And since I’m your local guide, I’ll also tell you what to do after the effort, without straying far from the start: go take a deep breath of fresh air in the Saint-Symphorien-des-Bois forest, make a detour to Charolles to wander around the town center and settle on a terrace, or head out to Paray-le-Monial for its superb heritage and a peaceful walk along the water 🏰.

You come, you enjoy yourself, you do a good deed, and you leave with memories filling your shoes (and not just mud) — so, are you in? ✅
