Saint-barthelemy, Landes, Aquitaine

CIRCUIT CLOSED IN THE RAILROAD BRIDGE AREA UNTIL MID-FEBRUARY This hike, accessible to all, begins on the banks of the Adour, at the old fishing port of Urt. You'll notice its paved slipway with steps to enable boats to be loaded and unloaded whatever the water level of the Adour, subject to the tides. It's a place steeped in history, where salmon and shad fishermen live on. After wandering along the banks of the Adour, the route heads inland, discovering under the trees the Ardanavy river, a secret tributary of the Adour river, and the Etchepette barthes, flooded woods. A sensitive and original natural environment where biodiversity is fully expressed: water irises, water lilies, willows, plane trees and alders, egrets and herons, discreet otters and cistude turtles.

The day begins with a stroll along the banks of the Adour and in the middle of the Aquitaine polders that are the barthes, ideal for bird watching. From Guiche, a tributary of the river, the Bidouze, offers itself as a guide in this crossing of the Pyrenean piedmont. The ports of Guiche, Bidache or Came keep the memory of the river trade of yesteryear, while the bucolic towpaths draw their curves in symbiosis with the meanders of the Bidouze. Almost halfway along the route, a heritage stop can be considered in Bidache, then the itinerary will resume on the heights of Came, in the direction of Béarn. Castles and watchtowers greet the entrance to the territory of Gaston Fébus and a providential greenway will allow you to span the valley of the Gave d'Oloron, easily reaching the spa town of Salies-de-Béarn, the city of Salt and its architectural nuggets.

The village of Urcuit overlooks the bed of the river Ardanavy and the barthes of the Adour, floodable meadows. Ditches, dykes, canals and flap gates ensure that the effects of the tides entering the land via the Adour estuary and its tributaries are controlled. The Ardanavy is no exception to the rule and it is not uncommon to observe significant differences in water level in a few minutes, or to see the current flowing upstream. From the barthes of Alçouet, grazed by horses, to the banks of the Ardanavy, the walk is very comfortable and does not care about the moods of the tides. Dykes, cycle paths and towpaths take turns from one bank to the other to take you through a mosaic of natural environments combining waterways, meadows and wet woodland. Fauna and flora will be presented to you at the end of the walk by instructive thematic panels.
