Forests, Biarritz and a beautiful tan...

The Les Landes region is really varied. The largest forest in Europe? It's here. The highest dune in Europe? It's here. The city most fashionable for surfers? It's here. You will find everything here!

Forests and pilgrimage

Nature lovers will find themselves in Les Landes. Vast pine forests and beautiful landscapes to explore by bike or on foot. If you want something more adventurous try the Natural Park of Les Landes. This park, located in the north of Les Landes with Gironde in the south, to the east of the Atlantic coast, covers a large area and provides its visitors with long exploring routes. 
For the adventurous we also recommend the Camino de Santiago de Compostela.

Fishing, boating and visiting

With a coastline of 106 kilometres of beach, water sports enthusiasts can enjoy fantastic holidays. 
Definitely worth a visit are the seaside towns of Biarritz and Mimizan. The latter, in addition to the beautiful beaches and its pristine natural environment offers an exceptional historical heritage. The porch tower of the Priory is on the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites. 
In addition to surfing you can also try canoeing, fishing, swimming and relaxing on the sandy beaches. For a day of culture, Bordeaux is the ideal city. And after a visit to the biggest square in France, Place des Quincunxes, why not order a glass of Bordeaux wine?
