Superb greenway between Lacanau and Maubuisson! You will cross the dune area between the pines. Ascend and descend. Take advantage of being at the top of the dunes to put your head above the canopy of pines.

On this first day, you'll leave Bordeaux along the legendary cycle path that runs to Lacanau. From the Bordeaux Lac area, you'll be completely protected from cars until the end of the stage. Beware of road cyclists who can travel quite fast on the path.

At the beginning of the cycle path, between Bordeaux and Saint-Médard-en-Jalles, there are shops and bakeries where you can get something to eat. Don't be shy, because after that, until Lacanau, there are only fountains.

Take advantage of the Salaunes rest area to take a break in the shade and fill your water bottles.

Well-developed but quite hilly and winding bike path through dune areas with pine and mixed forest (holm oaks, strawberry trees) and gorse areas.
