Description
A family sporting event not to be missed in April 2027 in La Londe les Maures!
Winding through vineyards and hills, families with children as well as seasoned mountain bikers will be able to admire the springtime beauty of our countryside and soak up the scents of the many tree species that fill the air in our Mediterranean forest.
Following in the footsteps of Maurin des Maures, the fictional hero of the Provençal poet Jean-Aicard, participants can take part in this nature ride in La Londe-les-Maures.
