Freewheel down the Canal de Garonne !
Fancy taking a trip across Lot-et-Garonne, but sick of traffic at every turn? Well, you will be pleased to know that there is a way to travel right across Lot-et-Garonne without meeting any cars. The Canal du Garonne towpath, or voie verte, links Castets-en-Dorthe near Bordeaux and Toulouse, crossing the region over a distance of 87km. The voie verte follows the former towpath and is accessible to all.
On the water’s edge and in the shade of the century-old plane trees, this route has a variety of interesting sites waiting to be discovered. From Agen to Meilhan-sur-Garonne via the Buzet vineyard, there are numerous places to stop and taste the delicious local produce, enjoy some fun activities or learn something new in the many museums.
