This walk is only possible outside flood periods. You’ll be walking through the Heugas communal forest, admiring the many oak trees with storks, reaching the River Luy, passing under the D6 bridge, following a backwater of the Luy and reaching the forest track. From there, you can either take the Route de l’alluvial plain – Landes departmental footpath no. 6.5 – or return to your starting point. Please take care as you will need to cross the D6.

From the Moulin de Bénesse, restored by volunteers, you can enjoy panoramic views of the Chalosse and the Pyrenees mountain range. You’ll discover the rolling countryside of Heugas and the neighbouring villages, and can spot at least seven water towers. During opening hours, you can buy bread, pastries and hot drinks at the mill car park.
