And today, a whole city, with its forty clubs, its thousands of athletes, athletes and volunteers, is happy to welcome Olympic teams as a preparation center for the Games. A whole city awaits athletes in new or renovated infrastructures, all in an easy to access, pleasant setting, conducive to concentration, training, but also relaxation and tourism. "Country town", close to nature, with significant hotel capacity, the Ville des Herbiers has everything to ensure that each athlete can prepare for his Games in the best possible conditions. The « Parc Equestre du Bocage » is made up of a large arena with two sand tracks Toubin Clément. One 72 x 37 m competition and one 65 x 20 warm-up.  We have a 130 x 60 m outdoor sand track and a 120 x 60 m grass track.

We are close to any catering system, from gourmet restaurants (Michelin starred) to international chains. It is possible to work with a service provider directly on site.

The Puy du Fou Park is only about ten km away.
