サンテグジュペリのおすすめライド

beautiful shaded greenway, enjoyable in summer!

Big efforts made by town

Nice passage through an old railway tunnel. Well lit.

It's a very smooth and (almost) flat ride with constantly changing vistas. After you pass under the Rocade, it really starts to become interesting with some handsome estates on your left and the Garonne on your right. A quick pass through Latresne, which has no particular charm, after which the real thing quickly begins: dozens of kilometres through woodlands, meadows, vineyards and natural reserves.

a really pleasant and smooth track, from Bordeaux to Créon there is a false flat but nothing insurmountable

very well shaded

Using the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention that dates back to pre-Christian times. Thanks to such a construction, human or animal muscle power could be easily replaced by a watercourse - natural or artificially created - in order to grind grain into corn, for example. There are essentially two different ways of driving watermills: Either the water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or the water is guided above the wheel and falls onto the blades; this type of construction is more efficient due to natural gravity.

The tunnel is really cool 😎
