Mark your calendars: SATURDAY JUNE 29, 2024 An exceptional opportunity in a unique location in Europe
Having a site like the Passage du Gois on its territory is undoubtedly an advantage. But how to highlight it? It was from this question that the idea was born, in 1986, of organizing a race against the rising tide on the legendary cobblestones of Gois, preceded by popular races open to all on the open road.
Each year, the Foulées du Gois mobilize two doctors, 25 rescue workers and two Zodiacs, as well as the famous "Red Caps", the approximately 250 volunteers of the "Les Amis du Gois" association. The oyster farmers provide their support by making their barges available to allow the media to follow live and in images the fight of the runners against the rising tide. The “Étoile Sportive du Marais” association (ESM Challans) provides technical support.
The Foulées du Gois, which has become an internationally renowned sporting event, has managed to preserve the family spirit that has inspired it for more than thirty years. New for 2022 has been introduced: a new race of 30 male and female athletes with a falling tide, offering a different approach and racing technique.
The Foulées du Gois is an event not to be missed. Come and take part in this unique experience and join us to experience exceptional moments in this emblematic place.
