Hourtin-Plage / Lacanau-Océan La Vélodyssée, the Atlantic Cycling Route
Still in the forest and still on cycle paths. The natural reserves encountered throughout the route demonstrate that these large spaces are populated, rich in wildlife and a lot more diverse that we may first think…

Itinerary
The route from Hourtin-Plage to Carcan-Plage is shared with other traffic; the forest route is not very busy. The course crosses several local cycle paths. From Carcan-Plage to the way into Lacanau, the route is on resurfaced designated lanes. The level of difficulty in the dunes is not inconsiderable: it is like cycling along a rollercoaster!
Connection
Lacanau is easily accessible, with designated, well surfaced cycle lanes. All facilities available.
