La Vélosud de Urt à Salies de Béarn

The day begins with a stroll along the banks of the Adour and in the middle of the Aquitaine polders that are the barthes, ideal for bird watching. From Guiche, a tributary of the river, the Bidouze, offers itself as a guide in this crossing of the Pyrenean piedmont. The ports of Guiche, Bidache or Came keep the memory of the river trade of yesteryear, while the bucolic towpaths draw their curves in symbiosis with the meanders of the Bidouze. Almost halfway along the route, a heritage stop can be considered in Bidache, then the itinerary will resume on the heights of Came, in the direction of Béarn. Castles and watchtowers greet the entrance to the territory of Gaston Fébus and a providential greenway will allow you to span the valley of the Gave d'Oloron, easily reaching the spa town of Salies-de-Béarn, the city of Salt and its architectural nuggets.
