Walking

Walking enthousiasts can make delightful walking tours across the beach or through the woods. Moreover three sorts of trails have been plotted by the Fédération Française de Randonnée Pédestre for hikers with more experience.

1. GR (sentiers de grande randonnée – long trails)
2. GRP (sentiers de grande randonnée de pays – regional trails)
3. PR (sentiers de promenade et randonnée – local trails)

The GR and GRP trails are meant for trained hikers. The GR runs through the Côte d’Argent from Lacanau tot Urt.

The short PR are easy and do not require any specific preparation. In Les Landes there are as many as 124 of them varying in length from 4 to 21 kilometres.

At the Tourist Office in Saint-Julien-en-Born you can buy walking maps.
