Shortly before the bridge over the Canal du Rhone à Sète, you can turn onto a gravel path next to the canal. However, the entrance leads under a barrier, it is not possible to drive around. If you have luggage with you, unloading is unfortunately inevitable.
This saves you a 20km detour of EuroVélo 6 around the Étang de Vic via Villeneuve-les-Maguélone. The trip right next to the canal is extremely interesting, as the canal is structurally delimited and runs through the Étang de Vic. Although the path is a gravel / gravel road, it can also be ridden well with a loaded trekking bike

A beautiful gravel track, very long, very straight and very… exposed to the wind (my advice, check the weather forecast, especially the wind direction… headwind at 45km/h, we don't move quickly and it's very very long ^^)

There is always a strong westerly or northwesterly wind here. There is actually a cycling ban on this route, which probably has little absolute significance. It is a strenuous and exciting alternative to the EV8, on which many birds (flamingos) can be seen. The wind is really strenuous, the surface of the road is good to ride on. For long stretches you are somewhat protected by the dam on the east side. Please note that the Passerelle du Pilou at the northern end has limited opening times. Probably 8:00 a.m. - 8:30 p.m. in summer. We saw 11:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. on October 3, 2024. Without this bridge you have to take a big detour via the Maguelone peninsula.
