Canal de Garonne - Toulouse Bordeaux by bike!!!


Andrée - April 2022
We rode the Garonne Canal from Bordeaux to Toulouse on our own electric bikes in 5 stages, stopping at 7 accommodations. The proposed route is excellent; the stages are relatively short, allowing us to take our time visiting nearby villages and attractions. The last stage, however, seemed a bit monotonous, but we had to reach Toulouse. The phone app we use to view the route and track our progress using GPS is great, although it takes a little while to get the hang of it. The choice of accommodations was excellent, with a welcome from our hosts that we will remember forever. Our luggage was waiting for us at each stage. Thank you to the Nature Occitane team.

Dalila - July 2018
New trip along the Canal de Garonne by bike from Bordeaux to Toulouse. We chose this trip of 5 days and are happy to have seen these beautiful places, a part of the Canal de Garonne which you share with walkers following the path to Santiago de Compostella. (GR5). Very good selection of B&Bs, excellent welcome! Well done and a big thank you to Guilhem and his team!
