The walk passes through the port of this former seafaring village, before setting off to explore Saquary Park. The lucky ones may have the chance to come across squirrels during the lunch break.
You will then need to gather your strength to go in search of the ruins of the old noble house of Gadeau and the Virgin of the sailors which will offer you a unique panorama of the village, the Médoc, or even the islands of the estuary. Back in the town, you cannot miss the Saint-Pierre-aux-Liens church built on the remains of the Gallo-Roman villa of Plassac, a unique archaeological domain listed as a Historic Monument.
