A pedestrian journey between land and sea 

When mixing sports activity and exceptional views, it results in a unique experience. This is what you will find with the Visorando app, offering dedicated routes for quality hikes. Among its wide range of options? A 15.27 kilometer hike to rediscover the Pointe du Cap Ferret, first along the ocean then around the bay. An idyllic walking route that unveils the most charming spots along our coast. 

The must-see places of Bassin d'Arcachon in sight

On the agenda? Beaches along the Ocean, Blockhaus with pretty tags followed by beaches along the Bassin d'Arcachon with a view of the Dune du Pyla in Arcachon before heading to the forest paths, discovering the digue des 44 hectares with the most beautiful villas of the Bassin. Also the opportunity to pass by (or even stop at) the numerous oyster tasting huts surrounded by fishermen's cabins that embody the uniqueness and way of life of this little piece of paradise.

15.27 km and 4h25 of walking on average

Visorando, which then emerges as a true companion on the road, has even gone so far as to establish a precise and complete description of the hike, point by point. The expert application also reveals practical information (with restaurants and toilets nearby). The hike, which allows you to see all the major highlights of the basin (D'Arguin beach, Dune du Pyla, or endless oyster beds to name a few), is done on average in 4 hours and 25 minutes. It is considered "moderate" in difficulty.
