PISCINE DES GAYEULLES

Swimming pools
4.3/5
3 reviews

It's the relaxation pool of the Rennais. To swim: a 25 m pool, and for other water activities the swimming pool also has a 10 m dive pit that also hosts the apnea courses. But too much is needed after the effort. It has a large playground for small and large ones: a wave pool, a whirlpool pool, massage jets, a playful, high-tide course and a hammam! This is the whole spa aspect but with a municipal formula accessible to all! Including people with reduced mobility for whom the swimming pool provides specific facilities.

And when the beautiful days come, you can play the lizard outside and enjoy the deck. Very popular with its competitive prices and numerous equipment, we need to be a strategist to find a quiet niche. The night and the early morning are particularly appreciated. And the framework does not waste anything: At the end of the pool you will be nose-hearted with the biches that come to greet you, perfect to wait for his companions with serenity. And why not finish this relaxing session with a picnic in the park? Other activities are available right next door, to name but a few: the crescent of Forest Adrenaline, the arena at Blizz or even the Archery club…

Olympic swimming pool of Rennes, it is the biggest of the city and hosts many sports events (including Tout Rennes Nage, in April!).
