Le Pout walks

The official name of the circular route is: Lignan-de-Bordeaux–Cénac – Circular Route 2 – Portes de l’Entre-deux-Mers Community of Communes. Crossing paths with walkers and cyclists along the Lapébie trail, this circular route offers a glimpse into another era, when the railway crossed the Entre-deux-Mers region from Orléans station in Bordeaux to Sauveterre-de-Guyenne.Further reminders of the past are the quarries, which today provide a home for bats and blend seamlessly with the wooded hillsides, creating places with a unique atmosphere. Having become a source of risk, they, like the waters of the Pimpine, exemplify our changing relationship with the land. This circular route forms part of the ‘11 Bell Towers’ route organised by the Portes de l’Entre-deux-Mers Community of Communes.

Daignac, with its 14th-century castle, vineyards, lots of undergrowth and few paved roads... Very flat route.

Stone quarried from the local quarries shapes our landscape. It forms the foundation of the castles, as well as the old houses that cluster together to form hamlets, bearing witness to the way of life in these localities. Vines, clay soil and stone form the bedrock of our relationship with this land and mark our impact on these transformations. Circular No. 5 of the Portes de l’Entre-Mers Community of Communes.

We offer you a lovely walk through the undergrowth and vineyards. You will pass by a pond, wine estates and the outskirts of Tresses, Pompignac and Fargues Saint-Hilaire.

For many years, the municipality of Pompignac has taken great care to preserve a green, wooded area around the village, which has enabled it to create a very pleasant circular walking route, in collaboration with the Communauté de Communes des Coteaux Bordelais and the Gironde Department. The path is well signposted (follow either “Ceinture Verte” or “Circular Path of Pompignac”).

The various vistas offered by the region’s sweeping panoramas provide a glimpse into why these lands have been chosen as holiday destinations throughout history. The beautiful mansions, castles and wine-growing activity leave their mark on the landscape. Between these estates, stretches of woodland run through the villages, allowing wildlife to roam freely – wildlife we hope to encounter along the way.
