                Short circular of western Bordeaux via green spaces            
            
        
                This is a circular route that allows you to discover the green spaces of western Bordeaux, a privileged area. As in many cities, the air in the west, coming from the sea, is supposed to be healthier. This area has many quiet, shaded streets and well-maintained parks and squares that are closed at night. The route can be done by bicycle, taking care.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular loop of Bordeaux city centre through green spaces            
            
        
                A short circular centred on the green spaces, covering approximately one hectare and avoiding traffic as much as possible. Circular accessible to people with reduced mobility (no stairs). Some green spaces, which are accessible at all times, are not recommended at night.This route can be cycled at a gentle pace, taking care to avoid pedestrians.            
            
            
    
                
                Long circular loop around western Bordeaux through green spaces            
            
        
                This is a circular route that allows you to discover the green spaces and parks of over one hectare in the west of Bordeaux. As in many cities, the western sector is favoured because the air coming from the sea is considered to be healthier. On this side of Bordeaux, green spaces often take the form of private gardens and well-maintained public parks are closed at night.This route can be completed by bicycle at a leisurely pace.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular loop of Bordeaux city centre on the north side through green spaces.            
            
        
                The aim of this urban walk is to spend around two hours exploring the centre of Bordeaux, focusing on the northern part of the city, with an emphasis on public and private green spaces and avoiding traffic as much as possible. This route also takes you through some beautiful parks and both affluent and working-class neighbourhoods. The route is accessible by bicycle, but care should be taken.            
            
            
    
                
                Long circular loop around northern Bordeaux via green spaces            
            
        
                This walk connects some of the green spaces in northern Bordeaux. Only some, because Bordeaux stretches far to the north and it would be difficult to visit all the green spaces in a reasonable walking distance.The walk starts at Place des Quinconces, winds through the beautiful neighbourhoods brightened up by green spaces that are closed at night, and after Parc Marceau, takes you through the more working-class neighbourhoods of Grand-Parc, Chartrons and Bacalan, which are currently undergoing renovation, before returning along the Garonne.It is possible to do this walk by bicycle, taking care to watch out for cars and respect pedestrians.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular loop of Bordeaux city centre on the west side through green spaces            
            
        
                This is a circular route that allows you to discover the green spaces and parks, covering more than one hectare, in the centre-west of Bordeaux. As in many cities, the western sector is favoured because the air coming from the sea is supposed to be healthier. On this side of Bordeaux, there are many beautiful houses with private gardens and well-maintained public parks, which are closed at night.The route can be done by bicycle, taking care.            
            
            
    
                
                Bordeaux, stroll across the two bridges            
            
        
                Since the construction of the Chaban-Delmas Bridge, it has been possible to take a stroll along both banks of the Garonne River. Whether you prefer a brisk or leisurely walk, you will discover the most beautiful views from the Bacalan Bastide Bridge (Chaban-Delmas) and the Place de la Bourse.            
            
            
    
                
                Long circular loop around eastern Bordeaux through green spaces            
            
        
                La Bastide is a neighbourhood located on the right bank of the Garonne, east of Bordeaux. This long-neglected working-class neighbourhood is undergoing rapid change, with the conversion of industrial wastelands, multiple real estate projects, new streets... The proposed route is likely to change quickly...The aim of this walk is to connect all the green spaces larger than one hectare in this neighbourhood, avoiding traffic as much as possible and offering the most beautiful views of Bordeaux from the quays. Two shortcuts are suggested to shorten the walk.I suggest starting the walk on the left bank quays, but it is also possible to start directly from the right bank, at Place Stalingrad, at the end of the Pont de Pierre bridge. The walk can also be done by bicycle, taking care to watch out for pedestrians.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular of Bordeaux-Centre on the east side through green spaces.            
            
        
                This is a circular that aims to connect the various green spaces of La Bastide, a neighbourhood located on the right bank of the Garonne, in two hours, avoiding traffic as much as possible. La Bastide is a former working-class neighbourhood of Bordeaux that has long been neglected and is now undergoing complete renovation. You will come across buildings from the 1950s alongside recent futuristic constructions and old Bordeaux shops. You can easily move from one era to another, and the construction work is far from complete. It is possible to do this route by bicycle if you are careful.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular of eastern Bordeaux via green spaces            
            
        
                The aim of this two-hour urban walk is to connect the various green spaces in this area of Bordeaux while avoiding traffic as much as possible. La Bastide is a working-class neighbourhood that has long been neglected but has been undergoing rapid change in recent years. This walk allows you to discover the two faces of La Bastide: the old neighbourhood with its streets of shops and traditional Bordeaux stone houses, and the new neighbourhood with its new buildings. The walk can also be done by bicycle, but you must remain very attentive.            
            
            
    
                
                Long circular loop around southern Bordeaux through green spaces            
            
        
                The aim of this circular is to connect the green spaces of more than one hectare in the south of Bordeaux. To the east of this area, near the station, you will find a majority of working-class neighbourhoods, often undergoing renovation, with green spaces that are open all the time. To the west of the circular are more affluent neighbourhoods with well-maintained green spaces that are closed at night.It is possible to shorten the circular at Rue Pelleport, almost in the middle of the circular.This route is suitable for cycling, but care should be taken around pedestrians and cars.            
            
            
    
                
                Circular loop of Bordeaux city centre on the south side via green spaces            
            
        
                This circular, less than two-hour route allows you to discover green spaces often located near churches, avoiding road traffic as much as possible. This is a rather privileged area with many small, well-maintained squares. The route is accessible by bicycle if you take care.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular loop around Bordeaux-Sud around the station through green spaces            
            
        
                This is a circular route of about 2 hours that avoids traffic as much as possible and tries to connect the various green spaces in this popular area surrounding the Saint-Jean train station and extending slightly into the commune of Bègles. There are many small squares and green spaces that are open all the time and are more or less well maintained. The route is accessible by bicycle if you take care.            
            
            
    
                
                Short circular around Bordeaux-Nord through green spaces            
            
        
                This urban walk connects some of the green spaces in northern Bordeaux, avoiding traffic as much as possible, and takes less than two hours. The urban walk offers a fairly comprehensive view of Bordeaux, including middle-class neighbourhoods, working-class neighbourhoods, old neighbourhoods, renovated neighbourhoods, beautiful private gardens, and public gardens that are more or less accessible and well maintained. It is possible to do the walk by bike, taking care.            
            
            
    
                
                Mandelieu and Mandavit parks in Gradignan            
            
        
                A very green circular loop, without concrete or tarmac, in Gradignan, very close to Bordeaux. Suitable in all seasons (paths are not muddy and there is shade). There are benches dotted along the route. There may be mosquitoes near the river (the Eau Bourde).            
            
            
    
                
                The Eau Bourde green corridor between Canéjan and Gradignan            
            
        
                Having a river near your home is always a blessing. Our Eau Bourde is modest but full of charm, offering around fifteen kilometres of almost continuous walking or cycling along its tranquil course, alone or with the family, whatever the season.            
            
            
    
                
                The balconies of Lormont: from the Château des Iris to the Château du Prince Noir            
            
        
                In the Bordeaux metropolitan area, this original circuit combines magnificent views of the Garonne, the Chaban-Delmas and Aquitaine bridges, the Cité du Vin and, further afield, a glimpse of "old" Lormont, all in a natural setting.
Please note that there are many steps (but they are in very good condition).            
            
            
    
                
                Route des Sources starting from Gazinet            
            
        
                Route starting from the Maison des Sources car park.
A varied route, partly along the stream, in open country around the Monsalut estate with its two lakes, then through forest, then between moorland and cultivated fields, finally returning to the forest and the stream for the return to the source.            
            
            
    
                
                The Eau Bourde between two mills in Cestas            
            
        
                In the privileged environment of the Bordeaux suburbs, there are many opportunities for walks and hikes. This loop, with its varied landscapes, can be enjoyed as a quiet and relaxing stroll, or, on the contrary, covered at a brisk pace using the techniques of power walking or Nordic walking. I opted for the latter, for a workout circuit lasting about an hour and a half.
