This route invites you to explore the authentic charm of Soulac-sur-Mer, where typical architecture blends with the sea air. As you pedal through the pine forests, you'll be intoxicated by their woody scents, while discovering the superb lake at Hourtin-Carcans where your day's stage stops. You're at the heart of the miles of trails that wind through this unspoilt countryside. You're on La Vélodyssée®, EuroVéloroute no. 1, a European itinerary linking Roscoff to Hendaye and crossing France. This route, one of the longest in Europe, is mainly on its own right-of-way, away from motor traffic, giving you the peace and safety you need to enjoy the countryside to the full. Your adventure continues along the coastal paths of the Médoc, passing iconic sites such as Le Verdon-sur-Mer, Soulac-sur-Mer, Grayan-et-l'Hôpital, Naujac-sur-Mer and Hourtin Plage.
