A very quiet campsite for cyclists. Fabulous shower, bathroom, and electricity to charge your devices. The village is beautiful. It's definitely worth stopping here. There's a shop, bar, restaurant, pizzeria, and pharmacy on site. Cost: €5.

Perched high in the Lot-et-Garonne region, Moncrabeau offers a superb panoramic view of the Baïse Valley. Known as the "world capital of liars," the village holds a lying competition every summer, organized by the Académie des Menteurs (Liars' Academy), a good-natured tradition that has made its reputation far beyond the region.

The setting is magnificent, it is a restaurant / guest house so it is not possible to have a picnic, but to have a small restaurant in a superb setting it is perfect.

Perfect for a short stop. Tables in the shade, a very pleasant setting near the Canal. Possibility to buy food and drinks at the harbor master's office (be careful it is not always open), toilets (reserved for customers of the harbor master's office 🙄) The village of Buzet is not very far, there are quite a few amenities.

Founded in 1284, Vianne is one of the rare bastides in the southwest that has retained its fortification system: its city walls, four gates and towers, which are now practically intact, have withstood the onslaught of time and man and are one of the most authentic bastides testifying to Albret's medieval past. With the road crossing and the four gates, this design is reminiscent of Roman urban architecture with cardo and decumanus. The Romanesque church is atypically located on the edge of the town.
