Canal du Rhône à Sète. On indoor cycle path.

Highlight (Segment) • Other

I don't understand this exit from the edge of the canal by bike because the Waterways do not allow these lanes to be alongside: there are signs all along

A beautiful stretch of cycle path between the two lakes "Étang du Méjean" and "Étang de l'Arnel". If you're lucky, you might even spot a few flamingos in the shallow waters of the lakes.

March 22, 2022,F - Montpellier Palavas-les-Flots Sightseeing

In the morning with the bread wheels to Montpellier for a sightseeing tour ... then with the gravel bikes on to the coast to Palavas. Return with probably the shortest ferry ride of my life (approx. 10 m).
