Cannes - Outdoor Sports Capital
​

Picture
Get Fit - Stay Fit 
​

Rather like a ski resort, Cannes has a number of walking, jogging and running "pistes" of various lengths and difficulties.  There are 14 routes and they cover 60 km throughout the town. You can obtain a leaflet from the tourist office or go on to www.cannes.com (click sport and then plein air) where you can download the plan or watch videos of the pistes. There is now a phone app as well 

Not your bag, so hit the beach.  Try exercising on Mace Beach free of charge every Saturday morning 10-11am and also on the beach at Kiosk 16 Plage du Midi. You will need a mat or towel, tennis shoes and a bottle of water. All ages welcome. The fitness master is provided by the town.

​ BoccaCabana has seen several stages completed along the prom at La Bocca. The first was an outdoor sports area. From the Morana roundabout to the Darse bridge you will find 700m of coastline dedicated to cycling, walking and street workouts - plus a hop, skip and jump to the sea for a swim.  There is a fitness area as well as picnic spots and kiosks for snacks. The area is served by a free bus service in summer.

​Circuit Training - Croix des Gardes

​The route is 3.1km and is a mix of cross country, circuit training modules and open air gym equipment as you go round. There are three water fountains available to quench your thirst. 

Gently does it...

Tai Chi in the grounds of the Noailles Library, Ave Picaud and in summer on the beach.
