Sport Nature Weekend: Slope and Hills 2027

If you love the smell of the forest, fresh earth, and trails that make you look up, the Sport Nature Weekend: Slope and Hills in Bourgueil is your playground 🌲.

Here, the terrain doesn’t promise you smooth, flat ground: it promises life, bursts of pace, shaded sections, and that little “come back for more” vibe that’s typical of the area… in short, plenty to earn your smile at the finish 🏞️.

You choose your dose of adventure: 8, 9, 12, 15, 16, 24 or 38 km (and there are even two 24 km formats) to treat yourself without scaring yourself, or to truly challenge yourself 🗺️.

The route takes you between nature and undergrowth, with that “slope and hills” style that lives up to its name: it goes up, it goes down, and you keep moving—smart—enjoying the scenery rather than suffering through it ⛰️.

And after the effort, just a stone’s throw from the start: go unwind on the banks of the Loire for a peaceful stroll, stop by the Abbey of Bourgueil for a heritage touch, head over to the Château de Gizeux if you’re after grand scenery, or take a walk in Chinon for its little streets and atmosphere 🥾.
