La Course des Ridins

La Course des Ridins is an annual running event organized by the Club Saint Jean de Monts Vendée Triathlon Athlétisme and the city of La Barre de Monts/Fromentine. Celebrating its 8th edition, the event features a variety of courses that showcase the natural beauty of Fromentine, including forests, coastal paths, and the unique ridins—small sand waves formed by tidal currents. Participants can choose from several races, including a semi-marathon (21 km), a 12 km race, an 8 km discovery run, a 15 km walk, and kids' races.

The event concludes with a friendly gathering featuring local oysters. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
