Tour My Run

Run Amiens with a local

Amiens is a city you run along the water. The Somme traces flat, peaceful towpaths, the Hortillonnages spread their floating gardens and canals, and the Saint-Leu quarter lines up its colourful houses beneath the largest cathedral in France. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Somme banks towards Camon, the Parc de la Hotoie loop, the green corridor along the water. Not a standard circuit: one hour with an Amiénois who knows the good, flat, rolling paths and the right tempo to find your rhythm.

Come, I'll take you running

To get taken running in Amiens, book a run on TourMyRun: a local runner welcomes you and their group at a meeting point, and you set off along their route, at your own pace, for the length of a run — often around an hour. You never run alone, and there's nothing for you to organise.

Run like a local

Your guide is an Amiénois who loves to run and knows every bend of the Somme. They pick a flat, rolling route to match your level — riverbanks, parks or the green corridor — and show you the Amiens of the water, the one you can’t see from the station. Many of our guides here are running-club members and University of Picardy students who know their loops by heart.

Who to run with in Amiens?

Discover Amiens on an easy-paced run

FAQ — Running in Amiens

Do I have to pay?

Your guide is a passionate amateur, not a professional. They are not paid: what you pay covers the organisation and a contribution towards the costs they incur — never a wage, never a service contract. It's a run between runners, not a ticketed tour.

Is it flat?

Yes, Amiens sits on a plain: the Somme banks, towpaths and parks make for flat, rolling routes, perfect for finding your rhythm. Each listing shows distance and pace, and your guide adapts to your level.

How long is a run?

Usually around 1 hour, but it depends on the run you pick — each listing shows distance, duration and pace.

Can I run early or on weekdays?

Yes. Guides in Amiens often offer sunrise and weekday slots — ideal between visits or before a busy day.

I run in Amiens — can I become a guide?

Absolutely. If you know your routes by heart and enjoy running with others, you can offer your runs and choose your slots. It's voluntary: your costs are covered, never a wage.
