This family-friendly walk will take you along the banks of the Adour and its alluvial plain. ¹
The alluvial plains are vast floodplains frequented by herds of semi-wild horses. The area is rich in wildlife, including storks, egrets and grey herons.
This walk follows the old towpath along the banks of the Adour and can also be done by mountain bike. It has recently been tarmacked from the start to Saubusse. As mentioned above, as the alluvial plains are floodplains, it is best not to walk there after heavy rain.

Departure from Heugas (Landes)
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.
