Marathon of the Villages – Lège-Cap-Ferret

The Marathon des Villages – Lège-Cap-Ferret is a community-focused weekend road event held on the Presqu’île de Lège‑Cap‑Ferret that combines athletic challenge with local village atmosphere. The organiser presents multiple formats under the "Marathon des Villages" brand, including a solo marathon, a two-person duo relay and an 11 km randonnée, with scenic stretches along the Bassin d’Arcachon, forest tracks and short beach sections. The event highlights local catering and market activity around the Marché de Piraillan, and partners such as the association Laurette Fugain are regularly involved.

The course material published by the organiser describes an 8-shaped marathon route split practically into a smaller (≈16 km) loop and a longer (≈26 km) loop, with the duo relay handing over at the market area. Organiser information and the timing partner (Protiming) confirm chip timing, multiple aid stations on course and medical support, and finishers’ entitlements stated on the event pages include a technical T-shirt, a medal and a bottle of wine. Entrants are asked to consult the official site for the athlete guide, registration windows and final practical details such as bib pickup and parking arrangements.
