Run Rennes with a local

The must-run routes

• The Ille-et-Rance canal — a flat towpath heading north, the rolling escape of Rennes runners.
• Parc du Thabor — a remarkable garden in the heart of the city, avenues and a rose garden, easy loops at dawn.
• Prairies Saint-Martin — a riverside nature park, green trails a step from the centre.
• Parc des Gayeulles — a large wooded area with ponds to the north-east, shaded tracks for endurance.
• The Vilaine banks & La Prévalaye — a ribbon of water to the west and a vast green space, long lines to stretch your stride.

Run like a local

Your guide is a Rennais who loves to run and knows the canal, the Vilaine and the city’s parks. Since Rennes is fairly flat, they play with distance and scenery — the canal, the Thabor, the Gayeulles — depending on your level. Many of our guides here are running-club members and University of Rennes students who know every training loop.
