History

Frequented by neighborhood joggers, this sports ground welcomes every year the arrival of Grand Raid, a mountain race that crosses the island from the Sud Sauvage. In the past, horse races and races of donkeys and pigs were organized there, and were lively, popular successes; the site supported a hippodrome^[1] that has now disappeared. It also had, for a time, a velodrome at the beginning of the 20th century.^[1]
