Tour My Run

Run Pau with a local

Pau is a city you run facing the Pyrenees, between hillsides and river. The Boulevard des Pyrénées offers one of the finest views in Europe over the range, Parc Beaumont unrolls its avenues and lake in the heart of town, and the Gave de Pau runs below, cool and wild. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Boulevard des Pyrénées promenade, the Parc Beaumont loop, the Gave banks, the Bois du Bastard trails. Not a standard circuit: one hour with a Palois who knows the good paths — flat or on the hillsides — and the right tempo, with the summits as your backdrop.

Run like a local

Your guide is a Palois who loves to run and knows the boulevard, the Gave and the city’s hillsides. They pick a flat loop (the boulevard, Parc Beaumont) or a drop to the Gave and a castle climb depending on your level. Many of our guides here are running-club members and Pau University students who know every trail — the Pyrenees in their sights.

FAQ — Running in Pau

Do I have to pay?

Your guide is a passionate amateur, not a professional. What you pay covers the organisation and a contribution to your guide's time and expenses — not a commercial service. It's a run between runners, not a ticketed tour.

Is it hilly?

Pau sits on hillsides: the Boulevard des Pyrénées and Parc Beaumont stay flat, but dropping to the Gave below or climbing from the castle means slopes. Each listing shows the profile 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 Pau often offer sunrise and weekday slots — ideal between visits or before a busy day.

I run in Pau — can I become a guide?

Absolutely. If you know your routes by heart and enjoy running with others, you can offer your runs, choose your slots and receive a contribution for your time.
