Are you a sporty epicurean looking for an escape and a change of scenery?

Join us for a “gourmet trail” ... 4 days of nature and gastronomy for a total disconnect.

The ideal course to gently end the trail season and start the fall in great shape!

On the program:

– every day, 15 to 25 km trail runs along the coast and in the mountains on exclusive and wild trails,

– Swimming in the sea in the most beautiful coves of Southern Corsica,

– Advice on technique, effort management, preparation, and nutrition for trail running, to help you improve your skills,

– Comfortable accommodation in an incredible private villa with a swimming pool and a superb sunrise over the bay of Porto-Vecchio,

– and every evening, gourmet dinners carefully prepared by our hosts.

Who is trail running for?

Seasoned trail runners looking for an active vacation – but not too active – or regular athletes who are new to trail running and want to learn more about the sport and improve their skills while discovering beautiful places in a relaxed atmosphere.

The course is aimed at all athletes who train at least twice a week and want to improve their trail running skills. Experience on 10-15 km trails is strongly recommended.

In addition to enjoying the local cuisine and discovering the major attractions of Southern Corsica, one of the objectives of this course is to improve technique, particularly in terms of downhill running, running techniques on uneven terrain, managing effort, and strategies for optimizing hydration and nutrition.

Your guide, who is also a sports coach and nutritionist in training, will be able to advise you on all these essential aspects of trail running.

The Duo bonus?

Are you a group of two or more (couple, family, friends, siblings, etc.) who want to share a vacation together, BUT some of you love trail running while others are more into beach and walking?

No problem! Come together...

You'll share breakfast on the terrace. Then, during the day, those who prefer a chill vacation will go on easy discovery walks with Alex, while the “trail” team will set off with Cinzia.

You'll meet up at the end of the day to relax on the beach, take a dip in the villa's pool, enjoy an aperitif with a view, and a delicious meal!
