Welcome to Bordeaux!

The city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers a journey back in time with its majestic squares. Stroll through the lively Saint-Pierre district and explore some of the many museums the city has to offer. Bordeaux is also renowned for its prestigious vineyards.

From Bordeaux, you follow the peaceful Garonne River along the scenic Roger Lapébie cycle path – named after the 1937 Tour de France winner. The route takes you through beautiful landscapes of forests and vineyards to the charming village of Créon.

Along the way, you can visit the Sauve-Majeure Abbey, a Romanesque masterpiece with impressive sculptures and well-preserved ruins. When you reach the historic bastide town of Sauveterre-de-Guyenne, you’ll be greeted by grand archways and remnants of medieval walls.

From Sauveterre-de-Guyenne, you continue south along the Garonne Canal. The route winds through the rolling hills of the Entre-deux-Mers region, where vineyards and gentle hills stretch as far as the eye can see. The effort climbing the hills is rewarded with breathtaking views and a sense of tranquility in the heart of wine country.

Next, you reach the medieval village of La Réole, a true gem on the banks of the Garonne River. Take time to explore its narrow streets and enjoy the views over the valley from the old Benedictine abbey. The day concludes with a peaceful ride along the canal’s embankments and locks before arriving in the charming village of Mas-d’Agenais – known for its beautiful collegiate church, well worth a visit.

You continue your journey along the beautiful Canal des Deux Mers, where the landscape is lined with greenery and calm waters. The first highlight of the day is the small town of Damazan – a typical medieval bastide with colorful façades and a charming square, perfect for a sunny break.

Shortly after, you reach the idyllic port of Buzet-sur-Baise, beautifully set amidst lush surroundings. As you approach Agen, you’ll encounter one of the trip’s most impressive structures: the Pont-Canal de la Garonne. This 600-meter-long aqueduct allows you to cross the river by bike. Upon arriving in Agen, known as the “capital of the plum,” you’ll find a city full of history, culture, and the charm of southern France.

Today, you leave Agen and follow the green cycle path south along the Garonne Canal. The first stop of the day is Valence d’Agen – a charming 13th-century bastide with a genuine, warm atmosphere. Here, you can stroll among well-preserved historic buildings or take a break at the small harbor.

The journey continues along the canal, where locks and leafy avenues shape your ride. Soon, you reach Moissac – one of the highlights along the famous pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. The town is renowned for its remarkable monuments, not least the Saint-Pierre Abbey.

Efter du har passerat den vackra Cacor-kanalbron över floden Tarn fortsätter du längs den fridfulla Canal des 2 Mers mot dagens mål – Toulouse. Ditt första stopp på vägen blir Castelsarrasin, där du kan ta en paus vid småbåtshamnen och upptäcka stadens historiska byggnader och charmiga atmosfär.

Cykla sedan vidare genom det böljande landskapet och de solvarma vingårdarna i Frontonnais. Här odlas den unika druvan Négrette, som bara finns i denna region.

Allt eftersom du närmar dig Toulouse byter naturens gröna toner mot de varma, rosaskimrande nyanser som gjort staden berömd. Snart cyklar du längs Canal du Midi, ända in till stadens hjärta och det ikoniska Place du Capitole.
