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”).
