Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Arès do Arcachon

This ride takes you from the relaxed seaside village of Arès down the western edge of the Bassin d’Arcachon to the lively town of Arcachon. Most of your 47 km journey unfolds on dedicated cycleways—so expect a chilled vibe, minimal traffic, and a smooth 97% paved surface. You’ll pedal through pine forests and past oyster farms, catching peeks of the bay and maybe even glimpsing otters or herons along the way.

The route is mostly flat, with gentle climbs totaling about 160 meters of ascent, so it’s ideal for all fitness levels (or even a lazy holiday spin). Arcachon itself is famous for its belle-époque architecture, sandy beaches, and the option to indulge in fresh seafood when you park your bike at the finish.

Tip: Bring a swimsuit! There are plenty of spots en route for a quick dip. This is one of the region’s classic rides—perfect for soaking up that laid-back Atlantic Coast charm.
