The car park is located at the bottom right of the last descent of the D146 when arriving at Biscarrosse Plage.
The start of the hike is just after the barrier to the north of the car park.
(S/E) Take the path heading north, following the green markings. At the firebreak (approximately 500 metres), leave the green route and continue straight ahead towards the north. A little further on, the path will turn gently westwards until it joins a larger path.
(1) Take this road to the right heading north, rejoining the green route.
(2) At the roundabout, leave the green route by crossing the roundabout on the left towards the west. Walk along the dedicated cycle path which heads west along a road, following the blue route.
(3) 50 metres before the first road coming from the left, cross to your right to join the cycle path (Blue route) that runs alongside the campsite. Continue to follow the Blue route, entering the car park and following the blue markings on the trees (impossible to get lost!). After the car park, continue through the forest until you see the sign to turn right.
(4) Take the path that branches off to your right. It climbs slightly and from this point onwards, the hike will continue with ups and downs until you reach your destination! Keep following the Blue route.
Continue south-east then east. You will cross a cycle path and, after about 1.2 km, the D83 (be careful, it is busy in summer and cars drive fast). After crossing, continue straight on along the path that climbs uphill.
(5) At the end of the climb, the path leads to a wide forest road. Take the left fork heading north, still following the blue trail markers.
(6) After about 800 metres, don't miss the start of the small path on the right (it is marked by a stake on the right of the track, then by signs on the trees). At the top of the climb, just before you leave the forest, you will see a magnificent pidgeon hunting hut on your right. Continue along the path, which soon descends and becomes sandy (blue route).
(7) Continue left on the sandy path that descends and continue to follow the Blue route.
Cross a recently deforested area. Once you reach the road, leave the Blue route and follow it on the left (east) for about 200 metres.
(8) Turn right onto a forest path heading south. This straight path climbs and descends for about 500 metres.
(9) At the crossroads of four paths, take the path on the left that climbs uphill and from this point, follow the Green route. At the top of the climb, take the forest road on the right: it heads south, then south-west as it descends.
(10) At the bottom of the descent, take a small path on the left that climbs uphill. Cross the cycle path and follow the well-marked Green route to the finish (please note that there is a lot of traffic on the cycle path in summer).
(11) Cross the cycle path. The finish is at the bottom of the descent (S/E).
