Waterfalls in a Gujan-Mestras Forest

This waterfall is located in Chêneraie Park in Gujan-Mestras. To get there, you'll stroll along the banks of the Landes Canal, which connects the fresh waters of Lake Cazaux to the Arcachon Basin. This walk allows you to admire the clear waters cascading from the old locks destroyed during the war. The Landes Canal is an artificial waterway, a remnant of Vauban's vision, which was meant to link the Arcachon Basin to Bayonne through the Landes wetlands. Chêneraie Park is therefore the ideal spot for a family outing, as its beautiful vegetation and natural freshness create a wonderfully relaxing and soothing atmosphere.
