The Best Podcasts about Outdoor Sport (in French)

Outdoor sport is life! Unfortunately, not all of us are lucky enough to live next to the ocean or near the mountains to practice our favourite activities whenever we want. But here's something to tide you over until your next outdoor sports outing: our selection of the best outdoor sports podcasts!

Podcasts have become very popular in recent years for several reasons. Firstly, because you can listen to them wherever and whenever it suits you. But also because with voice, podcasts allow you to be carried away and immersed in the stories told, while leaving a lot to your imagination.

The following podcasts will help you discover or deepen your knowledge of various outdoor activities. It's no substitute for a real sporting outing, but you'll find the experiences of the people interviewed to be both exciting and impressive. Pleasenote: all of the podcasts listed below are available on popular podcast applications such as Spotify, Apple Podcast, Deezer, Google Podcast, and less frequently on youtube, SoundCloud and others.
