What better way to start the month ofOctober than with the unusual soap box race? Organized in the town of Dourdan, the event promises to be one of a kind!
How does a soap crate race work? Several teams race downhill at top speed, with the ultimate aim of taking victory and, with it, the title of best soapbox driver in Dourdan. A soapbox is a small, unpowered vehicle that moves solely on the force of gravity, so you'll find all kinds of soapboxes, from the upgraded supermarket cart to the little racer that looks just like a child's car.
On October 1, 2023, come one, come all to support your friends and family who are taking part, as well as your favorite teams, in this epic race, the only one of its kind in the Paris region!
While you're in Dourdan, take a stroll through this pretty medieval town: explore the Château de Dourdan and its park, see the church, visit the flea market and take a picnic with you, so you can spend the day in the fresh air, less than two hours from Paris and still have a change of scenery!
