Tour My Run!Tour My Run!Avignon is a city you run in the shadow of the Palais des Papes and along the Rhône. The ramparts loop unrolls a flat, easy circuit along the medieval walls; Île de la Barthelasse, the largest river island in France, offers kilometres of flat paths facing the city; and the Rocher des Doms adds a short climb for the view. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the ramparts, the Barthelasse, the Rhône banks towards the Pont d’Avignon. Not a sightseeing circuit: one hour with an Avignonnais who knows the right tempo and the best time of day.
