에탕 드 바카레 최고의 라이딩 경로

Impressive and splendid facade in a small town.

At the next intersection (200m) take the Cacharel road which is much more pleasant and less busy. A change of scenery guaranteed!

A beautiful church in the center of Saintes-de-la-Mer. For €4, you can climb up to the church roof and enjoy the magnificent view. The church is clearly visible from afar.

Here we saw flamingos up close. The asphalt is poor, but still rideable on a racing bike. The landscape and the animals are the real goal.

This quiet side road leads from Salin-de-Giroud to the Etang du Fournelet and the Etang de Vaccares, right through the nature reserve with flamingos, cormorants, and horses, and a unique landscape. The asphalt is very rough, often cracked, and in some places borderline. With 30 mm tires and 4 bar pressure, I found it okay. This is definitely not a speedway.

Small memorial site for the camp "Camp de gitans de Saliers"

Climbing the roof costs 4 euros per person. Admission is until 1 p.m. Then there is a lunch break. It opens again from 2 p.m. It is definitely worth it. You have a beautiful panoramic view of Saintes-Maria-de-la-mer, the Mediterranean and the Carmarque.

The Roman Catholic church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Mer was built in the 12th century. The church has been a listed monument since 1840. At the end of May each year, members of the Roma, Manouches, Sinti and Yenish people meet to pay homage to their patron saint, Black Sara. The small town becomes a huge caravan camp. The pilgrims prepare the religious event and organize the program for a week. It is also the festival of reunion, and the majority of the children are baptized in the church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Mer.
