Ultra Trail de l'île d'Oléron

About this event

The Ultra Trail de l'île d'Oléron takes runners around France's largest Atlantic island, where endless beaches meet pine forests and oyster beds. The 100km route stays remarkably flat with just 250 metres of climbing, making it one of the gentler ultra distances out there — though the distance itself and sandy sections still demand respect. Runners can tackle the full loop solo, share it as a duo (two 50km legs), or split it between a team of four. The coastal scenery shifts from wild dunes to traditional fishing villages, with the Atlantic breeze as a constant companion. Starting from Ors, the course showcases everything that makes Oléron special: marshlands, lighthouses, and that distinctive island light that changes throughout the day.
