The best road cycling routes around Saint-Perdon

Mugron is a small hilltop town with a lovely view. Park near the church and visit the Tree of Liberty, planted in the 19th century. It's majestic, and right next to it is a lovely viewpoint. Take a moment to admire the landscape beneath its canopy of trees. Mugrón is easily explored on foot. You'll find plenty to pack for a picnic, and then head to the leisure center: a lake where you can swim and enjoy water slides with the kids. There's a refreshment bar in season and everything you need for a pleasant time with family or friends, at a very reasonable price! The banks of the Adour also offer lovely walks.

Built on the old railway line that connected Saint-Sever to the spa town of Dax, the Chalosse Green Route offers a 34-kilometer stretch on smooth, hard-surfaced ground. The route offers a bucolic atmosphere with landscapes of woods, hills, and meadows. Among the main tourist attractions are the town center of Saint-Sever (whose abbey is a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Santiago de Compostela Route), the villages of Mugron and Montfort with its Chalosse Museum, and Montaut, a charming Chalosse village. The Landes-Chalosse destination will delight cyclists thanks to its green route and numerous hiking trails.

Several improvements have been made to the crossing of the Saint Pierre du Mont nautical base: The step at the entrance to the area on the east side (Mont de Marsan) has been rectified: a stabilized inclined section has been created. At the level of the swimming lake, the route has been modified: it is no longer necessary to go around the swimming area and venture onto the initial chaotic "single". You can now reach the west exit (Dax side) directly - while keeping your bike in hand. The signage has been updated. The crossing, however, remains unsuitable for bikes with thin tires.

To see: the Benedictine abbey, the convent, the Jacobins museum, the Butte de Morlane and its arenas.

Romanesque building with circular apse and rectangular bell tower, of which only the apse remains, dating from the end of the 12th century. Inside, you can see 18th century woodwork, a monumental 17th century wooden chandelier, funerary slabs, and above all a marble high altar made around 1770 by the Mazzetti sculptors of Swiss origin who worked also in Laurède, Montaut, Aire sur l'Adour, Brocas les Forges, Mont de Marsan, Saint Pierre du Mont, Dax, Orthevielle, Pouillon and Sorde l'Abbaye.

Unfortunately, although on the EV 3-Scandiberian European route, the crossing of the nautical base of St Pierre du Mont offers a surface unworthy of such a course: ruts, sand and pebbles… this is what you will find under your wheels. This is very unfortunate because the site is pleasant, shaded and suitable for swimming. There is no question of asphalting the crossing but a bit of smoothing would be greatly appreciated, especially by busy cyclists.

From this belvedere you will have a breathtaking view of the Chalosse below. The gazebo next to it can offer you the perfect shelter in case of rain.

To leave Saint-Sever, this small road descends to take you to the heart of Chalosse.
