Walking or running, for serious training or just staying in shape, intensively or in a relaxed way, use enform@lyon to discover the city in sneakers.
Alone, with friends or with your family, you can walk through Lyon at your own pace as you follow one of the audio-guided circuits that are classified as green, blue or red, depending on distance and steepness.
Exercises to strengthen your muscles are included along the circuit and are organized according to three levels of difficulty. These workouts use urban furniture mainly but also rely on the street workout gym equipment installed in public areas. Didactic videos are available when you approach a station.
As you walk along, an enjoyable audio commentary will provide information on the various cultural points of interest you will encounter.
The Enform@lyon app published by the City of Lyon is designed to encourage physical activity while allowing a discovery of the citys cultural heritage. The circuits have been designed by the City of Lyon Sports Department with the assistance of AG2R La Mondiale and rely on the expertise of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Athletics League for the muscle-strengthening programs and the Gadagne Museums for cultural heritage content.
New circuits will be added regularly to the existing ones.
Sports or cultural activities led by coaches and cultural mediators will also be proposed.
