Hike in the bastide of Cadillac

Turtleneck & Shellfish, Vine Leaf & Bikini . Walks. Inheritance

Located on the banks of the Garonne, in the heart of Entre-deux-Mers, the bastide of Cadillac (founded in 1280) offers a remarkable heritage: ramparts, fortified gates, towers, castle and arcaded square can be discovered thanks to a whole new interpretive route heritage. Cadillac is also renowned for its Saturday morning market, which gives pride of place to local products and local wines, as well as for its festive events throughout the year.

Gironde Tourisme offers you a 45-minute walk from the foot of the ramparts to the heart of the bastide.
