Langon / Buzet-sur-Baïse

From Langon, the route joins the Canal de Garonne at Castets-en-Dorthe. Cycling along the next stretch, you can chart the progress of your reflection in the canal’s waters! From Fontet to Buzet-sur-Baïse, the Scandibérique follows the same path as the Canal des Deux Mers à Vélo cycle route. It’s easy to ride at a steady pace, although you may encounter quite a number of other cyclists as you pedal along in the shade of the plane trees. You pass a delightful array of bridges, locks, vineyards and orchards up to the port at Buzet-sur-Baïse, at the end of this stage.

The route

From Fontet, the route is shared with that of the Canal des 2 Mers à Vélo cycle route, running alongside the Canal Latéral à la Garonne up to Buzet-sur-Baïse. 

Surfacing smooth: asphalt.

PROVISIONAL ROUTE VIA BAZAS > CASTILLON DE CASTETS
At time of writing, the route via Langon wasn’t fully laid out, so, while awaiting its completion, cyclists have had to follow minor roads between Bazas and Castillon de Castets before rejoining the part shared with the Canal des 2 Mers à Vélo cycle route. Signposted EV3.

Connection
At Villeton - Tonneins or at Damazan, you can choose to head off along the Véloroute de la Vallée du Lot to discover one of the most beautiful rivers in France.
