The Buzet-sur-Baïse river stop is ideal for taking a break along the Canal Lateral à la Garonne. Perfect for cyclists, with plenty of supplies to stock up on!

Perfect for a short stop. Tables in the shade, a very pleasant setting near the Canal. Possibility to buy food and drinks at the harbor master's office (be careful it is not always open), toilets (reserved for customers of the harbor master's office 🙄) The village of Buzet is not very far, there are quite a few amenities.

Wikipedia: The first mention of Buzet is in a charter of Bernard Guilhem, Count of Gascony from 997 to 1009, which confirms the gift made by his father to the Abbey of Saint-Sever of three churches and a forest in the jurisdiction of Buzet. But it is not then a question of the castle. This appeared for the first time when Bernard Guilhem's successor, Sancho de Gascogne (1009-1032), offered the monks of Saint-Pierre de Condom his "domain (curtem) named Buzet and the castle (castellum) that he himself had fortified in it, with all his farms, vineyards, woods, meadows, pastures, wet and dry, cultivated and uncultivated (…)1”. As the text specifies, the Count of Gascony had himself ordered the fortification of a previous residence, which means that he can be considered without too much doubt as the founder of the Château de Buzet.

Many trails are located around the castle of Buzet .

Built around the year 1000, it has had a long and varied history with many owners over the centuries. It now belongs to the Buzet winegrowers' cooperative, which presents its vineyards and the history of the region there.

On this lake, you will find swimming and a leisure complex with mini-golf, tennis, cricket, volleyball, and the only water ski lift in Lot-et-Garonne!

Ambrus Castle may not look like it, but its existence dates back to 1259. It seems to have been jointly owned by several lords until 1286, when King Alexander III of England gave it full ownership to a single lord, presumably for services rendered or allegiance to the crown. Incidentally, 286 was also the year King Alexander III died when his horse tripped and he fell off a cliff!
