Are you a sports fan or do you just want to have fun? Join us on Sunday May 24 at Charlemont for a festive, offbeat race, « Fête les Zouaves », all about mud, foam and fun! A great way to spend time with family and friends!
For one day, the former commando training center will be open to the general public for a fun run, with 2 courses on the program: a 2 km course (run or walk), for the whole family, and a 5 km fun and festive course… Disguises welcome!
This year, Charlemont is teaming up with the Club Cinotehnique de Givet to bring you the Frappadog 5km in the morning, so you can enjoy the adventure with your 4-legged friend. Coté Zouaves: this race, where foam, straw, mud, colored powder and music await you, will be a great opportunity to have fun and fill up on oxygen. And at the finish line, local brewers await you!
