Very beautiful castle and long history since Henry III. Beautiful exhibitions and interesting permanent exhibition on the reformatory for young girls (early 20th century).

Big efforts made by town

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

Beautiful cycle path among the pines

Beautiful well-appointed station, be careful the bar restaurant takes the credit card but does not have contactless

Beautiful railway cycle path and beautiful restored train station.

As of September 2023, the castle can be visited for 6 EUR. You can see magnificent fireplaces, many picture tapestries, large rooms and you can learn shocking details about the time when the castle was used as a women's/girls' prison. Very worthwhile.
