Le Havre is a city you run between sea, listed concrete and cliffs. The promenade runs dead straight along the pebble beach, Montgeon forest offers its great green lung on the heights, and the customs path climbs towards Sainte-Adresse above the bay of the Seine. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the seafront at dawn, the Montgeon tracks, the climb to the hanging gardens, the cliff path. Not a standard circuit: one hour with a Havrais who knows the good paths — flat or climbing — and the right tempo facing the wind.
