Camping du Pouy: Unveil the Gems of Eauze and the Gers

To find peace and quiet and recharge your batteries far from the big cities, this itinerary combines a walk in the woods and a stroll through the vineyards between the churches of the two parishes of Saint-Pé and Saint-Simon.

An immemorial point of passage on the Ténarèze Roman road, this open and lively landscape is made up of woods and vineyards. You can also learn about the land in the farms, around the products of the fat, the local wines, the Armagnac and the Floc de Gascogne.

Departing from Lac de la Forêt, the loop, entirely in the undergrowth with a themed circuit and its palm groves, offers views of the countryside, the town and the Pyrenees. The supervised beach and the tavern of the lake leisure center will welcome lovers of relaxation and swimming.

The sand of the Landes and the clay of the valleys, the cultivated forest of pines and the older and wilder forest of oaks, hazelnuts and acacias, here is a contrasting walk in the heart of nature. Shortly after departure you will discover the site of Gueyze with the old castle and the fortified mill of the 15th century and its church of the 11th century with its trefoil apse. After the monument dedicated to the Néracais resistance fighters, you will cross the Gueyze river. You will then begin a long forest path which leads to the clearing surrounding the church of Meylan. After the town hall, alternatively sandy or sandy paths cross coniferous plantations, but also hornbeam, acacia and oak woods. Cross the Gueyze again on a two-arch bridge to reach the adjoining town hall.

This small walk without great difficulty will offer you at first, a very beautiful sight on the valley of the Gélise and thereafter, a walk on the paths of the Landaise forest.

This narrow and deep green valley conceals treasures of surprises: towns with a strong personality, rich and luxuriant vegetation. To discover them, follow the old railway line from Sos to Mézin.

The supervised beach and the guinguette of the lake leisure base will welcome lovers of idleness and swimming.

The village is located on the northern slope of the Gélise valley, on the border between Armagnac and the Gascony forest. Over the centuries, it was built around its castle, built in the 13th century, to control the valley, then it developed on the slope down to the river. Butcheries were established in the 19th century and continued until the 20th century. The economy of Poudenas is based primarily on its pine forests and vineyards of Armagnac.
